Police are investigating a suspicious device inside a Bronx home Wednesday afternoon, apparently left behind by a disgruntled tenant, senior law enforcement officials say.
Sources say the device was found inside a home on Taylor Avenue in the Van Nest neighborhood, prompting the NYPD’s bomb squad to respond and investigate.
The device — which appeared to be a pipe –was left by a tenant in the midst of a dispute with the landlord, sources said.
There’s nothing to suggest the device is nefarious, but police will get better clarity from the landlord and the still-missing tenant, who had moved across the street recently, angering the landlord, sources said.
