Ambassador Bridge to reopen after police shut down, citing suspicious package


The Ambassador Bridge, which connects Windsor, Ontario. in Detroit, will reopen after police abruptly shut it down Sunday night, saying they were investigating a suspicious package.

The bridge – the busiest land border crossing shared by Canada and the United States – was closed around 9 p.m. ET.

Traffic has not been allowed to enter Canada from Detroit after police said they found a suspicious package in a vehicle on the bridge.

However, just before 11 p.m., police announced that the bridge would soon reopen. They didn’t say anything about the contents of the package.
