HATTIESBURG, MISS. — Wal-Mart and Sam’s Club on U.S. 98 are readying to open for business after the Biloxi Police Department bomb squad determined a suspicious object found in the parking lot this afternoon was not a bomb.

Officials said the object was a homemade bass speaker.

The Hattiesburg Police Department was called to the scene around 1 p.m. after a Wal-Mart employee discovered a metal cylinder in the parking lot.

Employees began re-entering the businesses after 5 p.m. and the stores were preparing to allow customers to enter.  
  
Sgt John Campbell, with the City of Biloxi Emergency Response Police, gives thumbs-up after determining that a possible explosive device was a harmless home-made speaker.  
  
Hattiesburg Police Department officers examine a home-made speaker that was mistaken as a possible explosive device until a bomb squad from Biloxi determined it was harmless.
