Austrian officials have made a new arrest in connection to the foiled terror plot against Taylor Swift's 'Eras Tour' shows in Vienna. Authorities say the 19-year-old suspect fully confessed he planned to run into the crowd, attack fans and later detonate a bomb. NBC’s Kelly Cobiella reports for TODAY.
Taylor Swift is breaking her silence after a foiled terror plot led to three of her 'Eras Tour' shows in Vienna, Austria, being canceled earlier this month. Austrian police confirmed on Aug. 7 that they arrested two men who had allegedly planned to carry out attacks on major Vienna events, including Swift's concerts. Swift's Vienna shows were subsequently canceled, with all tickets being automatically refunded.
' Swift added that she was 'heartened by the love and unity' she saw in fans following the cancellations — many of them gathered to sing in Vienna together — and her team worked 'hand in hand with stadium staff and British authorities' to make sure the London shows were as safe as possible. 'I decided that all of my energy had to go toward helping to protect the nearly half a million people I had coming to see the shows in London,' she continued.
