NEW YORK - New York’s Times Square was evacuated Friday after a suspicious package was found near the Marriott Marquis Hotel, police told CNN.
The package was found near 45th Street and Broadway, officials said.
The evacuation comes six days after the failed bombing in Times Square for which Pakistani-origin Faisal Shahzad has been arrested. He had allegedly left a SUV packed with explosives in Times Square.
