New York authorities have determined that a moving truck abandoned on the Robert F. Kennedy Bridge, formerly known as Triborough Bridge, did not pose a threat.
Police closed off the bridge for about two hours on both directions after being made aware of the incident shortly after 10 p.m. Wednesday.
The department's bomb squad was called to the scene after a toll booth operator who approached the U-Haul truck smelled a strong odor of gasoline, said Deputy Police Commissioner Paul Browne.
The truck, with Arizona license plates, was headed to Manhattan from the Bronx when the driver abandoned it about 1,000 feet from a toll booth - and ran off, witnesses told police.
The bridge earned its former name - Triborough - because it connects three of New York's five boroughs: Manhattan, Queens and the Bronx.

Henry, I had no idea your Mom enjoyed anal so much. This cat can't get enough, too.
Oh and she says hi and be sure to wear clean underwear tomorrow and don't forget to brush your teeth (she gargled my seed earlier tonight, so she has the menty fresh feeling on her mind..)
Fuji, I wish to agree with you about Islam vs Peace. But look at the wars around the world – Afganistan, Iraq, Iran, Russia, Pakistan, Somalia, Yemen, Syria, Libya, Lebonon, uzbekistan, khazakhastan... why is that where ever there are muslims, there are wars? (or where there is a war, there are muslims..?). Any thoughts on that?
@YouAreRight
Are you seriously going to make yourself this stupid on CNN?

The U.S. authorities defence authorities does a excellent jobs in curbing terrorist threat inside N.Y. city .
If the driver needed help, he could have asked the toll booth operator. Instead, he ran. What's with that?
#204 Iran isn't in a war and hasn't started one in over a hundred years.
ALSO, so far we haven't experienced any terrorist attacks coming from that country.
Lol, just to make that clear if in any case people take your post seriously.
Aaand who started the World Wars, the Vietnam war etc? Sure were not muslims.
wow! we have a lot of racist people on here. What I freaking hate about us here in the US are the double stanards we hold. From what I see here people find it just fine to hate and slam Hispanics or Arabs. But if it was being said all black people were drug dealing gangsters or all white people were KKK members, I dont even know if CNN would even post it. It makes me sick the hate and double standards white AND black people have in this country when it comes to their definition of racism.
not all Muslims are terrorists, but it seems that all terrorists ARE Muslim.
Gerard Buck:
I have to disagree. Not all terrorists are Muslim. Nothing could be further from the truth. The Oklahoma City Bomber, who killed hundreds and injured hundreds more was, in fact, American. Yes, he had red, white and blue blood pumping through his veins. So terrorists can be anybody.
