Bomb Squad Detonates Bag Outside School Bd. Bldg.

Bag Was Filled With Clothes

MIAMI (CBS4) ― Miami-Dade School Board employees, who were returning to work Monday morning, encountered a delay when a suspicious package was discovered in front of the Miami-Dade School Board building.

Miami Police used yellow tape to cordon off the front entrance of the building and also shut down the road near 14th Street and 2nd Avenue. Employees were told to enter the building on the 1500 block of Biscayne Boulevard.

After several hours, the Miami Police bomb squad safely detonated the bag. It was a harmless bag of clothes.

The investigation into the suspicious package prior to the detonation caused delays on the Metromover Omni Loop. Miami-Dade Transit officials quickly established a bus shuttle service for Omni Loop riders.
