UPDATE: 9:30 P.M.

The Temple Airport has been cleared after an evacuation because of a suspicious item that was found Tuesday afternoon.

An Explosive Ordinance Disposal team from Ft. Hood examined the item and determined it was non-hazardous. The item is believed to be equipment left behind by a sub-contractor.  The explosives team was called in since employees did not recognize the item as part of their normal operations.
