The Arizona Supreme Court building near downtown Phoenix was evacuated while authorities investigated a package that tested positive for explosives on Monday morning.

Court officials said the situation began when staff found a suspicious package with no return label in the building’s mailroom, near 15th Avenue and Washington Street.

Arizona’s Family spoke with Karl de la Guerra, an international security consultant who said explained that it’s likely the package had already passed through several machines and individuals before reaching authorities.

“So that in itself renders the package a bit safe initially, because we know it’s gone through a lot of hands and hasn’t detonated yet,” de la Guerra said.

The Arizona Department of Public Safety said troopers and other law enforcement responded and found the package contained multiple vials, including two that tested positive for “homemade explosives.”

Officials haven’t said when the package was delivered or where it came from.
