TUCSON, Ariz. — A suspicious package found at the Pima County Superior Court building in downtown Tucson Monday triggered evacuations, police say.
According to the Tucson Police Department, the call came in at around 8:30 a.m. Police say three buildings adjacent to the court were evacuated as a precaution.
A court spokesperson said police cleared the scene and personnel were allowed back into the building just after noon Monday.
A TPD spokesperson says investigators are still trying to figure out what exactly was in the package.
Our thanks to @Tucson_Police for its handling of the bomb threat this a.m. Though it was all threat and no bomb, better safe than sorry, as they say. For the two bomb disposal officers who spent their morning handling what could have been a bomb - you guys rock! Thank you.
