it was the usual storm in a tea cup, badly parked car.
the police and authorities have to take everything seriously though.
i remember reporting a set of luggage unattended at the travel centre a few years back, the security put out an alert detailing whre the luggage was, eventually an irate lady came out of the coffee place and demanded to know what the fuss was about.
at that time, the country was on high alert.
to add insult to injury, she insisted that the security woman carried the stuff back to the cafe for her!!!!

Thank goodness it was a false alarm - but how reassuring that it was taken seriously and acted on.
