This is the best summary I could come up with:
Belgium’s interior minister Annelies Verlinden told VRT radio “we have the good news that we found the individual” - but also said she could not rule out that he had accomplices.
The terror alert in Brussels has been raised to the highest level, with an increased police presence in force, and people have been warned to be extra vigilant and avoid any unnecessary travel.
One Belgium newspaper said a witness heard the gunman shout “Allahu Akbar” - “God is great” in Arabic - before the shots were fired.
Another video, reported to be of the incident, which has not been verified by Sky News, showed a gunman in a fluorescent orange jacket and a white helmet chasing a man into a building before shooting at him.
He was also suspected of threatening a person in an asylum centre and a hearing on that incident had been due to take place on Tuesday, Mr Van Quickenborne added.
Muslim leaders in Sweden have called on the government to find ways to stop the Koran burnings, but police have allowed them, citing freedom of speech.
