Elkhart Police called in the bomb squad after a man mowing his lawn found a suspicious item Thursday around 11 a.m.
The item was found near Nappanee Street and Lusher Avenue.
Police said the item was a tote with wires sticking out of it so they called in the Bomb Unit.
Members of the bomb unit used a robot to open the tote and look inside. They determined the tote contained personal items and trash.
It was determined to be harmless.
Police have cleared the scene.
