TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (WTXL) - The Tallahassee Police Department reopened several downtown streets after an investigation into a suspicious package in the Kleman Plaza parking garage.

According the TPD, a security guard called police around 8:45 p.m. Tuesday when he saw a "small cooler with a pressure cooker inside."

TPD's Hazardous Devices Team, along with the Big Bend Regional Bomb Squad, responded.

They sent in a robot, rendered the cooler safe and gave the "all clear" about 45 minutes ago.

Investigators are reviewing surveillance video to figure out who put it there and why.
