SALT LAKE CITY -- An empty brief case caused a bit of a scare in Salt Lake Monday morning.

A woman who works at First American Title saw a small briefcase in the parking structure near 560 South and 300 East, didn't recognize it as belonging to anyone, and called police.

Forty people from that building and a neighboring structure were evacuated.

A robot tried to detonate the brief case, but instead knocked it off a ledge. There was nothing inside.
