A bomb squad has detonated a suspicious device that caused people to evacuate a shopping center and a busy intersection to shut down in Tomball.
Chief Jeff Bert of Tomball Police said the incident happened at around 1:15 p.m. Nov. 3 when a man with the package walked into a T-Mobile store in the area of Business 249 and FM 2920.
According to the chief, the man was angered during a confrontation around that time. He then hit a button on a device with a blinking light, which prompted police to be called.
The Harris County Bomb Squad was brought in, and a robot was used to X-ray the device and then detonate it outside the business.
