A concourse at Reagan National Airport was cleared of passengers while police investigate a suspicious package.
The suspicious item was “located in a break room” around 9 a.m. Thursday, the airport said on social media.
“The Airports Authority police established a perimeter for safety until the item can be cleared, that included moving passengers out of the D Concourse,” the airport said. “We will let you know when we have an update.”
The “all clear” has since been given and “airport operations are returning to normal,” DCA said on social media.
“The item was cleared around 10:20 a.m. by the Arlington County Fire Department,” the airport’s social post said. “Passengers are urged to reconfirm flight times and gate assignments with their airline.”
