Boulder police on Friday morning investigated a suspicious package found at an elementary school, closing roads in that area, then determined that it was not dangerous and reopened roads shortly after 9 a.m.
A bomb squad went to the school in north Boulder, Foothills Elementary, and X-rayed the package to determine that it was not dangerous, Boulder police said in postings on Twitter.
Package has been cleared and is not dangerous. The roads are being reopened right now. Thank you for your patience
