I was walking right past there when the police started sealing it off, shouting to clear the area and such.. :| took me ages to get to work, had to walk all the way around. I'm thinking there are more scares like this to come considering recent events, people are being far more cautious and reporting in bags etc. which don't get me wrong, is a good thing.. but it does make you realise how much of a real threat it is, especially for those who work in cities. :/
