A suspicious package was blown up by an Army bomb squad at a Hamilton shopping centre on Thursday night.

The package turned out to be a typewriter in its case.

It was discovered in the toilets at the Warehouse at The Base at Te Rapa shortly after 7pm.

The shopping centre was evacuated and the all clear was finally given just after 10.30pm.
