NEWARK (WABC) -- Newark Airport's Terminal A is closed as authorities investigate a suspicious package.

Port Authority police blocked vehicular traffic from entering on both the incoming arrivals and departures levels.

Authorities are reportedly investigating a suspected bomb at the American Airlines counter.

Inside a baggage room at the terminal, the TSA officers made their positive identification.

A bomb squad was en route to the scene.
