Hundreds Of Workers Evacuated

UPDATED: 4:39 PM EDT July 28, 2004
RIVIERA BEACH, Fla. -- A suspicious incident at a shipping company near the Port of Palm Beach prompted authorities to evacuate hundreds of workers Wednesday.

Nearly all of the port was shut down just after 4 p.m.

Two people have been arrested, while port authorities try to sort out the details.

Containers "of interest" are being sought, the port director told reporters, but he wouldn't say any more.

150 children at the Boys and Girls Club in Riviera Beach were moved to a recreation center further away from the area, where parents can pick them up.
