A report of a suspicious package outside Los Angeles City Hall prompted a large Los Angeles Police Department response, as officers conducted an investigation around 10:50 a.m.Tuesday.
The LAPD bomb squad responded to a black electronic box that was left under a bus bench.
Spring and Temple streets were closed off during the investigation and reopened around 12:15 a.m., once the box was cleared by the bomb squad.
