Police say a bomb squad was called in on Wednesday to the Turning Point USA headquarters in Phoenix after a suspicious bag was found.

The bag was found on Sept. 17 outside the headquarters, located near 48th Street and Baseline Road.

The Phoenix Police Department said a bomb squad responded to investigate, and the area was cleared out of an abundance of caution.

Just after 9:30 a.m., police said the bag was deemed safe and restrictions in the area would be lifted.

Police did not say what was inside the bag or if anyone was taken into custody.

Turning Point USA headquarters has been under heightened security, as hundreds of people visit the growing memorial for the company’s co-founder, Charlie Kirk, who was assassinated in Utah on Sept. 10.
