A bomb squad was rushed to the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade in Canberra after someone raised an alarm over a suspicious package, according to 7 News Sydney.
The ACT police have, however, deemed the package as non-suspicious.
The AFP Bomb Response Team was called in to investigate the package, as per reports, after the police evacuated the building and the surrounding areas.
"ACT Policing is investigating a suspicious package located in the canteen area of the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT) in Barton this afternoon," The Australian Federal Police said in a statement.
"About 1.45pm, ACT Policing received the report of the suspicious package at DFAT on John McEwen Crescent".
