The intersection of Abernathy and Roswell roads in Sandy Springs reopened just after 2 p.m. Thursday after four hours of detours and backed-up traffic in the area. Police closed the intersection about 10 a.m. after a motorist reported seeing a suspicious device sitting on a transformer box.

Northbound traffic on Roswell Road had to be routed to another area of Abernathy. Traffic on Abernathy was turned around, leaving some drivers with no known route to their destination.

I live in the same general area and up until reading about it here i had not heard about this. I am surprised by something this big and me not hearing about it. The media has barely talked about it. Thanks.
