One of the Los Angeles Metro stations was shut down as police spotted a "suspicious package," Los Angeles County sheriff's deputy Lt. Rich Maradiaga said.

MOSCOW (Sputnik) – The "package," which had a clock on top of it, was plugged into an electrical socket at the Gold Line light rail station in Highland Park, in northeast Los Angeles.

​"We evacuated the platform and rerouted the trains," Maradiaga said on Wednesday as quoted by The Los Angeles Times.

According to Maradiaga, who found the package, a bomb squad was sent to the station.
