Police rushed people out of the lobby of Trump Tower Tuesday while they investigated a report of a suspicious package.
Video taken by a bystander and posted on Twitter shows some people running through the lobby for the exits.

NYPD investigated and gave an all-clear, after they determined that the package was safe. It turns out it was a bag containing children's toys.
President-elect Donald Trump lives in the tower and has his offices there, though he is presently at his Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida.
Andy Martin, a 16-year-old from the New York City suburb of Huntington, says he was in Manhattan with family. He says people were evacuated "very quickly," with police shouting and telling people to leave.
