A tool bag that was “suspicious in nature” was found, a spokesperson for the Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office said.
“When deputies arrived to investigate, they found circuit boards and wires exposed from the bag. Therefore, out of an abundance of caution, we secured the area and requested the assistance from the bomb squad,” the spokesperson said.
An investigation determined that the bag was not a threat to public safety.
The investigation shut down N. Dixie Drive between Gipsy and Republic drives.
