OMAHA (KPTM) – Police evacuated a midtown neighborhood briefly Thursday morning for what was originally thought to be a bomb, but in the end, it turned out to be ham radio equipment.

The house, located near 48th and Mayberry, caught fire last week. A cleaning company found the equipment and called police, thinking it was a pipe bomb. Police were called, and officers detonated the equipment. The neighborhood was evacuated during the investigation.
