US: Suspicious package forces terminal shut down at California airport
Terminal B at Mineta San Jose International Airport was evacuated Tuesday morning because of a suspicious package. The airport's Twitter account noted that the terminal closed at 11:00 a.m. and reopened at 11:55 a.m. The package was first noticed around 10 a.m., an airport representative told Business Insider. The San Jose Police Department, San Jose Fire Department, and a bomb squad were on site to investigate the package and decided it was "non-threatening." The contents of the package have not been revealed. Rather than forcing the passengers in Terminal B to go outside, the airport moved them to Terminal A so they wouldn't have to go through security again. Southwest and Alaska Airlines operate out of Terminal B.<br/>
