[Python] FastAPI router type error: "Untyped decorator males function untyped"

I'm building an API with FastAPI. I want the API to be type-safe, but running mypy on a route returns this error: "Untyped decorator males function 'get_overview' untyped". Here's my route:

router = APIRouter()

@router.post("/overview/{location_id}")
async def get_overview(location_id: str) -> object:
if 4 not in fake_items_db:
raise HTTPException(status_code=404, detail="Item not found")
return overview

Is there a FastAPI-specific solution to this error?
