Several Italian sources, including La Gazzetta dello Sport and the Corriere dello Sport, have reported seeing police cordon off an area around a car.
They claim a sniffer dog alerted officers to a suspected explosive in the vehicle.
However, police have now removed the car and given the all-clear. It's believed the car contained traces of gunpowder.
