All-Clear Given After Novelty Grenades In Luggage Prompt Bomb Squad Response Near MIA

MIAMI (CBSMiami) – Toy grenades discovered in some luggage in the cargo area of Miami International Airport led to a large police presence including a bomb squad response.

The suspicious items, at first believed to be two grenades, were found inside luggage in a cargo warehouse at 6650 NW 22 Street shortly before 5:30 p.m. on Saturday afternoon.

After several hours, Miami-Dade Fire Rescue says nothing serious was found.
