Delaware Avenue was shut down for a short period Wednesday afternoon due to a suspicious substance.

Buffalo Police and the Buffalo Fire Hazmat team responded to a call just before 1 p.m. about a white powder in two balloons outside of Babeville on Delaware Avenue.

Crews shut down Delaware from West Trupper to Tracy to investigate.

Initial tests of the substance did not identify it but proved it was not hazardous. Further tests are forthcoming.
