MINNEAPOLIS - Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport has reopened after a portion was briefly evacuated when a police dog detected a suspicious bag on a luggage carousel.
The Transportation Security Administration says a police bomb squad was called to the scene and three security checkpoints were shut down for about an hour before reopening Tuesday afternoon.
Vehicle traffic into the terminal was stopped as the bag was investigated. The bag was cleared and the airport's concourses and checkpoints reopened about an hour after the dog noticed the bag about 1:45 p.m. No other details were immediately available.
