Investigations are continuing at a mosque in Wolverhampton that was evacuated amid fears of a "possible device".
Bomb disposal experts were called to Wolverhampton Central Mosque and roads around the building were cordoned off.
A spokesman for West Midlands Police said the measures were necessary "to ensure the absolute safety and security" of the local community.

Two men aged 25 and 22, both of Eastern European origin, were arrested in Small Heath, Birmingham, in connection with the blasts.
They continue to be held under the Terrorism Act on suspicion of being involved in the commission, preparation or instigation of an act of terrorism.

Residents reported hearing a loud bang but no one was injured and the device - the remains of which were found in a nearby alleyway - caused minimal damage.
The suspected nail bomb blast in Tipton, around eight miles from Walsall, took place on July 12 outside the Kanz Ul Iman Masjid mosque.
Bomb experts carried out a controlled explosion on part of the device, which officers said was designed to cause "serious harm".
