ORLANDO -- A tense situation at Universal Orlando came to an end after police, fire and bomb squad units were called in for a suspicious package at the north parking garage just after 11 p.m. Saturday.

The package turned out to be a fuel can and ammunition box belonging to a fire dancer who works at the theme park.

The dancer uses the fuel and ammo for the torches used in performances.

The items were left out of the dancer's car, which was parked on the garage's fourth level, because of the smell.

Police closed the garage as a safety precaution, so those with vehicles in the garage had to wait until the all clear was given.
