BRUSSELS — A man who said he was wearing a bomb belt rigged to explode by remote control caused a major scare in a Brussels commercial district yesterday before police found the device contained only salt and biscuits, officials said.

The Belgian capital remains on edge under a high security alert three months after three Islamic State suicide bombers blew themselves up at Brussels Airport and in a metro train, killing 32 people.
