No Threat Found After Police Investigation At Baltimore-Washington Airport

BALTIMORE, MD — An unattended bag prompted a police investigation at Baltimore-Washington International Airport on Friday, briefly delaying traffic and other services, according to officials.

At 4:10 p.m., BWI spokesperson Jonathan Dean said police determined there was no threat and services were resuming.

"We appreciate our customers' patience and understanding," Dean said.

In a statement shared shortly before 4 p.m., airport officials said screenings at checkpoints located in Terminals D and E had been suspended due to an ongoing law enforcement investigation.

Additionally, the inbound roadway to the terminal was temporarily closed.
