Police clear 6 D.C. schools that received bomb threats: 'No hazardous material found'
Last Updated : 10 Feb 2022 08:16:46 AM IST

 

Police investigated bomb threats at six schools in Washington, D.C, on Wednesday. They later said the schools were cleared and "no hazardous material" was found.

The schools, including Dunbar High School, are currently being evacuated, the Metropolitan Police Department tweeted on Wednesday afternoon.
 
The evacuations came a day after US second gentleman Doug Emhoff was escorted out of an event at Dunbar High School due to a bomb threat, Xinhua news agency reported.
 
More than a dozen historically black colleges and universities (HBCUs) around the US also received bomb threats in early days of this month dedicated to honouring achievements and struggles of African Americans throughout US history.
 
A law enforcement official has said the FBI has identified six persons of interest around the country, all juveniles, who are suspected of making the threats against the HBCUs.
 
The official added they appear to be "tech savvy," using sophisticated methods to try to disguise the source of the threats, which appear to have a racist motivation.
