Trumpet Causes Scare in Salt Lake City
Posted on: Thursday, 28 June 2007, 00:02 CDT
SALT LAKE CITY - A suspicious package left outside a fast-food restaurant Wednesday turned out to be a trumpet that has sounded its last note.
Someone noticed a suspicious package, and several blocks were closed down for about two hours as police investigated.
A robot detonated the case - and the fears were resolved.
"Some very alert citizens watched this package for a considerable amount of time and then they called the police thinking it didn't look right," Salt Lake City police Detective Gary Trost said.
"Gratefully enough, it was just a trumpet."
