SLC Police Confirm False Alarm: Suspicious Item at US Bank Tower Posed No Threat
Salt Lake City Police evacuated the US Bank Tower and asked nearby buildings to shelter in place after a suspicious item was found near an alley. After an hours-long ordeal, authorities determined that the item was not a threat and reopened the area. The item was identified as an organic agricultural product, but the investigation is ongoing to determine who left it behind. This incident caused disruptions in the downtown area, and it follows a reported bomb threat at a bookstore the day before.
