WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Authorities closed several major highways around the Pentagon and took a man into custody on Friday after discovering a suspicious package inside a car, police said.
Officials could not confirm local media reports that the package inside the vehicle resembled a bomb.
Reports said a police bomb squad was preparing to detonate the package while authorities searched for as many as three other people who were said to have fled the car on foot.
