U.S. Capitol Police have given the all-clear after a suspicious package was found near the Supreme Court Tuesday.

USCP cleared the incident around noon and the area has reopened.

Road closures were set up at the following locations as the investigation continues: 

  • East Capitol Street between First and Second Streets
  • Second Street between East Capitol Street and Constitution Avenue NE
  • Maryland Avenue between First Street and Constitution Avenue NE

They have since been taken down and USCP says all Supreme Court staff and other personnel can return to the area.
