This was confirmed by a police spokesman Groningen NU.nl.
It is not yet known exactly what is going on. Possibly it is a bomb threat, the Safety Groningen announced. The supermarket has now been cleared and the roads to the Boumaboulevard are closed.
Police are investigating where the store will also be searched. Also a gym and the home of the fan club FC Groningen located in the Euroborg complex were evacuated. The police now has images of a suspect.
Bomverkenners of the Explosive Ordnance Disposal Command Defence are currently in the shop investigate explosives

Earlier reports
In the previous weeks were more likely threat reports done at supermarkets in Groningen. The messages were about the presence of explosives. The Jumbo stores in Groningen were therefore all extra monitored by the police.
The final report was last week at a Groningen Jumbo supermarket on Victory Square. There was then also found explosive. The explosive went off and damaged a window.
Agreements
The police have ‘serious consideration’ ‘that these things relate to each other, said a spokesman. According to him, there are several similarities. So it was explosive in both cases placed at night and in both cases a Jumbo supermarket target.
The explosive that Sunday was filed, according to the police is less heavy than the bomb that was found earlier Wilhelminakade. That bomb, according to the police heavy enough to provide much damage and possible casualties.
Because both incidents took place at night, suspect the police that the accused is not in making victims, but in causing damage to buildings
