The 1700 block of Hamilton Street is open again after an investigation into a suspicious package that was found on Thursday morning.
Emergency crews and an explosives disposal unit were called to the street around 7:20 a.m. and the area was shut off for vehicle and pedestrian traffic.
The EDU did a scan of the package and determined that it posed no threat to public safety.
From the @ctvregina newsroom: @reginapolice have closed off a portion of Hamilton St after a suspicious package was left on the sidewalk on the 1700 block. A member of RPS just commented to camera operator @Ashley_Scarfe that they were doing x-rays currently. @CTVReginaLive pic.twitter.com/ofn8SeneOc
