Armed men enter Belgian apartment

Four armed men have entered a flat in the Belgian city of Ghent and police have sealed off the surrounding area.

Unconfirmed reports suggested that the four had taken a man hostage and police urged residents to remain indoors for their own safety.

The men burst into the flat in the Dampoort area of the city, in northern Belgium.

"They're in the building but it's not clear what's going on inside," a police spokesman said.

Hmm, at the moment they are not sure if it even was a hostage; it looks like it's made up by the 'victim'. Police didn't find any guns at the place and the 'victim' is arrested for false statements.
