Belgian prosecutors charged a Tunisian man with murder in relation to the Oct. 16 terrorist attack in Belgium that left two Swedish football fans dead and injured another.

A 44-year-old man was also charged Thursday with participating in the activities of a terrorist group, with prosecutors saying in a news release that they are trying to confirm that he is linked to the weapon used in the shooting.
