CINCINNATI — Cincinnati police spokesperson Sgt. Eric Franz said authorities completed their investigation into a "suspicious vehicle" near the John Weld Peck Federal Building on Sixth Street Friday evening without incident.

An RV with its engine running was reported to the Cincinnati Police by the security detail at the federal building.

Franz said, based on the RV explosion incident that took place in Nashville early Christmas morning, the police were using Explosive Detection K-9s to clear the scene out of an abundance of caution.
