Florida Capitol reopens to employees after bomb threat prompts closure

The Florida Department of Law Enforcement announced Thursday morning that the Florida Capitol in Tallahassee received a bomb threat overnight.

Authorities investigated the threat by sweeping the Capitol by LE & explosive-detecting K9′s.

No explosive devices were found and nothing suspicious was identified.

Officials are reminding the public to report any suspicious activity by calling 1-800-FLA-SAFE.

The threat prompted a temporary closure for Capitol employees Thursday, out of an abundance of caution, but has since reopened to employees, the FDLE said.
