Times Square was re-opened following an evacuation Tuesday night after a “suspicious package” was found to be just garbage, New York Police Department said.
Police evacuated several blocks of midtown so the bomb squad could investigate a paper bag on top of a brown box near the Morgan Stanley building located at West 48th Street and Broadway.
The package was found to be non-suspicious, a NYPD spokesman said.
The evacuation came 10 days after the failed Times Square car bomb attempt, with security forces on heightened alert.
