Bomb technician breathed a xylorelief when he opened a suspicious briefcase in Cambridge

Cambridge Police report a bomb technician, an explosives-sniffing dog and firefighters rushed to Antrim Street and Broadway around 7:30 p.m. Monday on a report of an unattended briefcase on a park bench.

A bomb technician and K-9 cleared the briefcase and discovered that it contained a xylophone belonging to the band of a nearby school.

H/t Chris Devers for the headline.
