Two men have been detained in Schiphol because of "suspicious items" in their luggage on a flight from the United States.


One man has been released but another man from Detroit raised suspicion because airport screeners found watches and cell phones taped together in his luggage.

A cell phone was taped to a bottle, a box cutter and three large knives were also found in the luggage together with USD$7,000 in cash.

"The items were not deemed to be dangerous and as we share information with our international partners, Dutch authorities were notified of the suspicious items," the department said in a statement.
