Dutch military police on Saturday said they arrested two men, one of whom was carrying a loaded firearm, as they left a train to Schiphol airport.

The force said it had a special arrest team ready after receiving a report from an emergency services number that someone was loading a weapon on the train.

"The man in possession of a firearm and his travelling companion have been detained for investigation," military police said.
