Disneyland reopens after probe into suspicious package
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}The Disneyland theme park in California was put on temporary lockdown Saturday after a suspicious object was discovered.
The park was reopened to the public after nothing dangerous was found, according to FOX News Channel.
Park employees spotted the object in a tree near a ticket booth at around 7:15 am local time and called police, who contacted the bomb squad, Anaheim Police Department spokesman Sgt. Bob Dunn said.

The object turned out to be part of a geocaching game, in which participants use GPS devices to track hidden packages, KNSD-TV reported.
While the lockdown infuriated guests who were delayed from entering Disneyland, it worked out well for those who were already inside the park when it was ordered.
