Alert At Michigan Office

From the National Terror Alert Response Center (a blog):

A security guard notified authorities after he came across a suspicious package left at the new Social Security office on S. Telegraph Rd. this afternoon.

The area was cordoned off and the public was not allowed to enter the building, which is south of Seventh St. Officials have cleared the scene and the area has since been reopened after a police dog determined the package did not contain explosives, said Monroe County Sheriff’s Sgt. Brian Angerer.

Homeland Security officials were notified since a government building was involved and have reportedly taken away the package and will continue any investigation.

Sgt. Angerer said the parcel was delivered by the post office and reportedly left near or outside the office door. The security guard then became suspicious either based on the way it was left behind or because of the writing on the package.
