Police: National Bomb Threats Included Twelve Columbus Targets

In a wave of bomb threats emailed yesterday across the United States, 12 have been confirmed in the Columbus area. 

So far authorities believe the threats were a hoax after searches at hundreds of schools, businesses, and government buildings nationwide found no sign of explosives. Columbus Police say among the threats directed at local targets, one was levied against Capital University in Bexley and another at Reynoldsburg High School. Police searched and cleared all locations yesterday.
