KIFI

WINDSOR, Ontario (AP) — The busiest border crossing between Canada and the U.S. has fully reopened following a police investigation into possible explosives found in a vehicle. Police say they detained one person in connection with the probe that for nearly seven hours significantly hampered traffic Monday across the Ambassador Bridge linking Windsor, Ontario, with Detroit. The Canada Border Services Agency says normal operations resumed just before 5 p.m. Windsor police say the border agency alerted them Monday morning after possible explosives were found in a vehicle in the secondary inspection area of the bridge complex on the Canadian side. A senior government official says federal police are not treating the incident as terrorism or a national security issue
