Suspicious Package at Mpls. School Not a Bomb

A bomb scare forced almost 200 kids and teachers at an elementary school in Minneapolis to evacuate Wednesday afternoon.

A parent found a suspicious package on the street near the front door of Fraser Academy in northeast Minneapolis around 2:30 p.m.

Students and teachers were evacuated to St. Mary's Church.

The Minneapolis Bomb Squad used a robot to examine the package. They blew it up and found it wasn't a bomb.

Additional details have not been released.
