Terminal briefly evacuated after police dog identifies suspicious bag at California airport

ONTARIO, Calif. – Travelers are being let back into LA/Ontario International Airport following a brief evacuation when a police dog became suspicious about a piece of luggage.

Airport police Officer Alicia Hernandez says the evacuation was lifted around 7:15 a.m. Thursday after the bag was cleared and its owner was found.

Hernandez says the K-9 sniffed out the bag earlier and identified it as suspicious. Terminal 4 was evacuated as police searched for the bag's owner.

Hernandez didn't immediately know of any flight delays as a result.

A power outage at the airport on Wednesday led to cancelations and delays in Terminal 2.
