A floor plan and photos of the Belgian prime minister's office were found on a Brussels terror suspect's laptop

Authorities have uncovered a file containing the floor plan and photographs of Belgian Prime Minister Charles Michel's office on a laptop tied to the Brussels terrorist attacks, a government official said Wednesday. The prime minister's office is a regular meeting spot for cabinet members, The New York Times reports. Belgian news reports also claim that the computer contained "precise information" about the prime minister's residence, which is located near the United States Embassy; Secretary of State John Kerry met with Michel there just this past Friday.
This is the same laptop computer that was found discarded in a trash can hours after the March 22 Brussels attacks and contained the will of one of the three suicide bombers. Authorities have identified the writer of the will, Ibrahim el-Bakraoui, his younger brother, Khalid, and another man, Najim Laachraoui, as attackers. They are still seeking a third airport attacker and another attacker believed to be involved in the subway blast.
The two explosions at Zaventem airport, plus a third at a metro station, killed 32 people and wounded about 270 others. ISIS has claimed responsibility for the attack.
