Authorities evacuated the Staten Island Ferry Terminal in lower Manhattan Sunday afternoon after finding a suspicious package.

The unknown package was found at just after 3:30 p.m., cops said.

The NYPD said the move was made “out of an abundance of caution” as cops examined the item.

“Please avoid the area of the Staten Island Ferry Terminal and surrounding areas as we investigate a suspicious package. We will update you when conditions return to normal,” the department wrote in a tweet.

The department announced that the package was “deemed safe” minutes later.

“Conditions are back to normal with slight delays in ferry service. We appreciate your patience and cooperation during our investigation,” cops tweeted.
