The WNDU Studios in South Bend had to be evacuated Thursday after an emailed bomb threat was received. Our reporting partners at WNDU say that numerous police units responded and no credible threat was found during a search of the building.
They went on to say that dozens of bomb threats were reportedly sent to news outlets, government buildings, banks, libraries, schools and other businesses across the country, according to NBC News.
NBC News released information from the NYPD Counterterrorism Bureau which stated, “We are currently monitoring multiple bomb threats that have been sent electronically to various locations throughout the city. These threats are also being reported to other locations nationwide and are not considered credible at this time.”
As of 3:30 p.m. ET, there were no reports of any credible threats being discovered and authorities were apparently reporting a suspected hoax.
