Police in Copenhagen on Tuesday ordered citizens in and near a downtown cafe to leave the area after finding a suspicious envelope.

The envelope was found at the same business spot where a shooter just killed a person over the weekend, CBS News reported.

It wasn’t immediately clear why police became suspicious of the envelope, but some members of the local media reported that it was linked to the Saturday shootings at the cafe and at a synagogue.

Police reported they raised the alert because of the envelope, but opened the area back to pedestrians shortly after evacuating, CBS reported.
