On Monday 11 February 2019, the railway station in Pétange was evacuated and closed due to a bomb threat received by the emergency call centre of the Grand Ducal Police.
Both the railway station itself and surrounding buildings were evacuated at around 14:00, with a security perimeter being established; several trains on lines 60 and 70 were delayed or cancelled as a result.
