Winnipeg police temporarily closed part of Main Street after a suspicious package was found in the 2500 block of Main Street near a Tim Hortons restaurant on Thursday.

The restaurant was evacuated and police said Main Street was closed between Red River Boulevard and Murray Avenue shortly before 10 a.m.

Just after 11 a.m., the street was re-opened. Police determined the package, a box with wires coming out of it, was some type of promotional item and was not dangerous.
