It was a busy Sunday for the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department when a suspicious package was found in Uptown at the intersection of Trade and Tryon streets. CMPD said the device posed no danger, but it was designed to look like a bomb.
Several streets were blocked off as the bomb squad made sure the package was safe. It was an isolated event, police say they are constantly training for these kinds of situations.

Strong said there are 14 people on the CMPD bomb squad. Most of them are part-time, meaning they do other jobs for the department like patrolling the streets of Charlotte.
