NEW YORK – Officials say a terminal at New York’s LaGuardia Airport that was evacuated has been reopened after an abandoned vehicle was cleared.
Alana Calmi, a spokeswoman for The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, says in a statement that Terminal B at LaGuardia was closed and passengers were evacuated late Thursday due to an abandoned vehicle near the terminal.
Terminal B at La Guardia Airport in Queens had been evacuated due to an unattended vehicle left in front of the terminal.
The NYPD Bomb Squad as well as the Port Authority Police investigated.
Many heavily armed military personnel were seen securing the building and assisting in the evacuations. They had been stationed in the airport due to the recent terror attack in Manhattan. There is heavy traffic in the area because of the police activity.
