No Word on LAPD Lockdown of Atwater Village

DRIVERS WERE DETOURED off Los Feliz Blvd. this morning into central Atwater Village, as the Los Angeles Police Department had taped off the 4-lane artery at Edenhurst Ave. They also cut off access at Glenfeliz Blvd. and Hollypark Place adjacent to Glenfeliz Elementary School.

Never mind the traffic mess, as express bus routes were jammed through narrow residential streets, and Glendale Blvd. took the brunt of drivers seeking I-5. All we want to know is, what the heck was LAPD doing? And why the bomb squad truck in front of an elementary school?

Okay apparently loading links is not working here.

It's unconfirmed but a neighbor told me (I live on Hollypark Pl) that there was a small black bag or package lying against a house and the bomb squad responded to the call. The police there told me they would evacuate house by house as wel las the school if they thought it necessary but it never came to that. They packed up and left pretty quickly.
