Brussels explosion: Bomb blast hits police building

bomb has gone off at the Brussels Institute of Criminology, without causing casualties, Belgian media say.

Shortly before 02:30 local time (00:30 GMT), a car rammed through three fences, RTL Belgium reports.

"One or more" suspects then reportedly detonated a bomb near the laboratories.

Belgium's terror alert level remains at three since bomb attacks on Brussels airport and the city's metro claimed by so-called Islamic State killed 32 people in March.

The institute is located in Neder-Over-Hembeek, a suburb north of Brussels.

It is unclear what happened to the suspects behind the blast.
