UPDATED: Terminal evacuated over "suspicious situation" just after 12pm on Wednesday.
Copenhagen Police announced on Twitter that a "suspicious situation" in Copenhagen Airport has led to the evacuation of Terminal 3:
The airline announced on Twitter that the evacuation is due to a suspicious bag.
According to numerous media reports, there is a significant police presence on the scene.
Neither DSB's trains nor the Metro are stopping at the airport and all flight check-in has been moved to Terminal 2.
Swedish newspaper Expressen reported that two police buses with officers wearing bullet-proof vests appeared at the scene. A police officer within the airport reportedly yelled "everybody get out", which was followed by "panic".
The incident comes just hours after Danish police raised the country's threat level by one notch to the second-highest level, citing the elevated risk of a terrorist attack after last week's Paris attacks.
