Subway service has resumed after a brief closure Thursday afternoon for a police investigation.

Toronto police say they evacuated King subway station on the Yonge line and the surrounding area after someone reported a "suspicious package" on a northbound train at around 2:22 p.m.

Police shut down traffic in the area while they investigated the report.

The police canine unit was brought in to help with the investigation but officials say there was no emergency.

The scene was reopened to traffic just before 3:30 p.m.
