The Kakegawa Prefectural Police (Central) received a call on Wednesday morning warning of a silver suitcase abandoned in a parking lot at the municipal cemetery, a spokesman told AFP on Thursday.
The regional team of bomb squads was dispatched to the scene and the agents created a perimeter with a radius of 300 meters around the bag, which was analyzed for more than three hours.
Local media sent a helicopter to follow the potentially dangerous operations of the experts. But after close examinationthe team found “adult goods” inside the backpack, the police spokesman said.

“Everything went according to plan, so everything is perfect and under control”; he added.
