Dallas Lockdown: Suspicious Package Shuts Down Downtown

0:00It's April 7th. Dallas News today starts now, AI powered and ready. I'm Corey with the story. Police just locked down a chunk of downtown Dallas after spotting a suspicious package Tuesday afternoon in the 900 block of Pacific Avenue. Right by the historic West End District, they're not spilling details on what the package looks like or how it turned up, but the Dallas PD has a massive crew on scene, combing every inch. Traffic's a nightmare through the core, with backups stretching far, and folks are steering clear while officials push everyone to skip the area. All together, for drivers, stick to Ross Avenue or Commerce Street if you're going east-west, or Griffin Street and Houston Street for North South moves to Dodge. The mess. Cops say more infos coming as they wrap this up, so keep an eye out and stay safe out there in Big D.
