CTV
Windsor police say the Ambassador Bridge international border crossing between Canada and the U.S. has been shut down due to “possible explosives” in the area.
Police were called to the scene at the Canadian side of the crossing between Windsor, Ont., and Detroit, Mich. on Monday morning.
Police say they were alerted by CBSA after possible explosives were located inside a vehicle in the secondary inspection area.
“No threat was associated to this and this is believed to be an isolated incident,” says a Twitter post from police. “The safety and security of staff and the public is paramount; as such traffic has been re-routed.”
Officers say the area has been evacuated and bridge is shut down both ways.
