An ambulance packed full of explosives is reported to have been discovered parked outside the German national stadium.
Security officials are said to have made the chilling discovery as Germany prepared to take on the Netherlands in an international friendly tonight, said local newspaper Kreiszeitung.
The match has now been cancelled as terror chiefs assess the situation which comes just four days after the Paris terror attacks which left 129 dead on Friday.
It is thought the ‘ambulance’ was actually a truck disguised as an emergency vehicle.
Reports suggest it was found after authorities received “concrete information” about a bomb threat.
Pictures now emerging from the scene show a large vehicle being taken away on a low loader.
However it is not clear if the vehicle is the one suspected of being laden with explosives.
The match in the HDI Arena in Hannover was due to begin at 7.45pm GMT but a security alert saw the police step in at around 6pm to prevent it going ahead.
An immediate threat and terror warning was extended to all of Hannover and a road block was put in place as the evacuation took place.
Only a handful of spectators were reported to have been in the stadium at the time.
