Pier 14 in North Harbor in Manila was hit by a series of bomb scares yesterday.
Fortunately, all three incidents turned out to be false alarms, according to Police Officer 2 Noel Sublay of the Western Police District Explosives and Ordnance Division (WPD-EOD).
Sulay said two suspicious packages were found at at around 9:20 a.m. at Pier 14 near the entrance leading to the the Super Ferry.
The package inside a yellow bag turned out to contain a marinated chicken left by a passenger. The other package was a broken alarm clock wrapped in old newspapers.
Just as the EOD agents were about to unload their equipment at WPD headquarters on U.N. Avenue, another bomb was reportedly found at Pier 14.
When checked, the package yielded only used clothing. – Cecille Suerte Felipe
