ATLANTA (WXIA) -- Police were called in and MARTA service was interrupted Friday morning after a suspicious rumbling was discovered in a bag near the AirTran ticket counter at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport.

It turned out to be a vibrating toothbrush, according to airport spokeswoman Myrna White.

Police temporarily stopped trains from coming into the airport while they investigated between 7:50 and 8:15 a.m.

There were no evacuations.
