Police filed a crime report after a small folding knife was found in a 15-year-old student’s bag during a security check at Finland’s Parliament House on Tuesday, Yle reported.

The student was part of a school group visiting the building. Helsinki Police’s command centre said there had been no threats and that the incident appeared to be a human error. The knife had apparently been left in the student’s backpack after an earlier forest trip.

Police filed a report over possession in a public place of an object suitable for seriously harming another person.
