Target stores in at least five states were evacuated this weekend after receiving bomb threats. All stores are “currently open and operating regular hours,” Target said in a statement.
The threats Saturday in parts of Oklahoma, New York, New Hampshire, Vermont and Louisiana mirror those made in recent weeks in Ohio, Utah and Pennsylvania. In most instances, unknown individuals emailed the threats to local news outlets. The FBI and the regional Joint Terrorism Task Force have been assisting with the investigation in some jurisdictions.
on Saturday afternoon listed seven locations in and around the area, starting the message with “we are going play a game” and ending it with “4/19/1995” — the date of the Oklahoma City bombing. The email claimed two of the seven Target stores had bombs. Burke said his officers helped evacuate the store and do a “cursory search to render the store safe,” which lasted about 25 minutes.
At the Plattsburgh location, multiple law enforcement agencies investigated and “determined the threat to not be credible at this time,” according to a statement from the Clinton County sheriff’s office.A spokesperson for the FBI said the department “remains vigilant and continues to work closely with our law enforcement partners on a state and local level.”
