Wal-mart closed due to bomb threat
The nearest Wal-mart to my house was closed down for two hours last night due to a bomb threat. What is wrong with people? The newspaper reports:
A bomb threat shut down Wal-Mart, 2760 N. Dirksen Parkway, for about two hours Sunday night.
Officers were called to the store shortly before 9 p.m. after employees received a threatening phone call indicating there was an explosive device in the building, police said.
The management decided to evacuate the building.
Police set up a perimeter and staging area and used canine units to search inside and outside the building with no results.
The nearby Culver’s restaurant stayed open to allow employees to wait inside as authorities investigated.
Employees reentered the store about 11 p.m.
