Police were contacted at just before 6pm yesterday (Tuesday 28 June 2022) in relation to a suspicious object outside York Crown Court.
Officers attended and a cordon was put in place on Skeldergate Bridge, Bishopthorpe Road and Cromwell Road.
Specialist bomb disposal officers (EOD) confirmed that the device was not suspicious, and the object was a phone charging power pack.
The cordon was stood down and enquiries are now continuing.
Anyone who has any information which could assist the investigation is asked to call North Yorkshire Police on 101 and quote reference number 12220111767.
