WCBS radio reported it was a Tomahawk cruise missile. Police and fire department officials could not confirm that.
The cargo came loose when the truck carrying it collided with another truck on a motorway in the Bronx.
"It was a military-type missile but it was inert. There was no danger and no one was harmed," a police spokesman said.
