UPDATE: The All American gate has been re-opened, according to Fort Bragg officials. The vehicle and suspicious package were inspected and no explosives were found, officials added.

A suspicious package was found in the vehicle of a driver attempting to gain access to Fort Bragg, North Carolina, on Monday, prompting military police to shut down the entrance to the base’s All American gate and call for EOD techs.

The man, described by military police as white and in his early 20s, approached the gate in a pickup truck.

Un,huh. Since when has Ft.Bragg had gates? I was based there several times,and went back several times in the 80's when I was working as a consultant with the Special Warfare Center,and I have yet to see a gate.

There are US and state highways that go right through Ft.Bragg. How do you suppose they shut them down?
