![Times Square Bomb Scare: NYC Webcam Captures Evacuation [PICS]](https://helios-i.mashable.com/imagery/archives/00Yh9IVkXImDbmaJwu1NqSG/hero-image.fill.size_1248x702.v1647018603.png)
Police confirmed that the device was a bomb, but there was no explosion and Times Square was safely evacuated. The story is still developing.
Live webcams are pointed at Times Square 24/7, and that means the events were streamed live on the web. Earthcam (embedded below), currently shows a deserted scene outside TGI Friday's on 46th Street and Broadway. But at 7 p.m., the livecam showed a packed street -- by 8 p.m., there were only a couple of bystanders. At 9 p.m., Times Square was deserted save for police vehicles.
The live feed is embedded below, along with captures before and after the evacuation.
