Suspicious Package Brings Bomb Squad to Police Headquarters [UPDATED]

Stamford police are investigating the package to determine if the contents present a hazard.


Update, 1:30 p.m. on June 27:

Stamford police have determined that the contents of what was reported as a suspicious package were, in fact, harmless. Bomb squad members have just cleared the scene and officers are returning to their normal duties.

A plastic bag next to the briefcase was determined to contain a loaf of bread, an apple and a book. The contents of the briefcase itself were determined to be "not life treatening, let's just say that," according to Capt. Tom Wuennemann.

The original report follows:

A suspicious package left at has resulted in a partial evacuation of the building.

Bomb squad units are on scene at the 805 Bedford Street location investigating the package, described as a briefcase-type item.
