MESQUITE, Texas — The Town East Mall in Mesquite, Texas, was evacuated after a call about a suspicious package.
Mesquite police and fire officials made the scene Saturday after getting a call about a suspicious can tucked above the mall's play area near the Sears. Officers helped mall security clear the area so they could investigate, the department told WFAA.
As Mesquite firefighters were investigating the device, a mall security K9 told them that the can was just a training device that he had left in the area.
Shortly after, the scene was reopened the public.
