Suspicious Incident Prompts Port Evacuation, Hundreds Of Workers Evacuated
A suspicious incident at a shipping company near the Port of Palm Beach prompted authorities to evacuate hundreds of workers Wednesday.

Nearly all of the port was shut down just after 4 p.m.

Two people have been arrested, while port authorities try to sort out the details. Containers "of interest" are being sought, the port director told reporters, but he wouldn't say any more.

2. Ricin in the baby food, shut down a port due to suspicious incident
If I was suspicious, I might think someone wanted attention taken away from the Democratic Convention, which seems to be going pretty well.

3. Will we get a "suspicious incident" reported
in every battleground state?
I believe I'll refer to further "suspicious incident reports" as "suspicious report incidents" instead.
