Doral ‘suspicious package’ was beeping and had wires. Cops say it was just a car part

Miami Herald

Doral Police were called to investigate a beeping package at a custom private freight loading company around noon Friday and brought in the Miami-Dade Police bomb squad.

Law enforcement quickly discovered that the beeping package, discovered at 1701 NW 84th Ave., was a false alarm.

“It ended up being nothing more than a motor to a windshield wiper,” said Doral Police spokesman Ray Valdez.

Valdez said the package had wires and a cylindrical canister of compressed air inside.
