A spokesperson with the
Port Authority says police responded
Monday around 8 p.m. to an unattended bag
in Terminal C Level 1 in the baggage claim area at Newark Liberty International
Airport.
Police relocated
travelers who were on Level 1 to outside of the terminal as a precaution
until the Essex County Bomb Squad arrived.
The bag was cleared and
passengers returned back to Level 1 around 9:15 pm.
All levels at Terminal C
have since reopened.
