Belgian authorities announce six people have been arrested as part of the investigation into Tuesday’s suicide bombings in Brussels, Euronews TV Channel reports.

According to the source, three of them were apparently detained in front of the federal prosecutor’s office, which said the arrests came during police searches in the neighbourhoods of Schaerbeek and Jette, as well as in the city centre.

The report came after the authorities lowered the security alert level down a notch from four – the highest level – to three, and as the search continues for at least one Brussels attacker now on the run.

Police are looking for the man captured by a security camera at Brussels airport along with two suicide bombers, according to the source.

The man who was wearing a hat and a cream jacket has not been named. There are reports that a suspected second bomber in the attack on the metro is also being sought.

Multiple blasts hit Brussels on March 22 leaving 34 people killed and dozens of injured. The first explosions occurred at the airport departure hall. Shortly after the airport explosions, two more blasts were recorded at Schuman and Maalbeek metro stations located near the EU offices. All metro lines were shut down after the attacks. The self-proclaimed Islamic State group claimed responsibility for the attacks.
