Harvard Business School Evacuated Over Bomb Threat

Cambridge, MA - Evacuated Harvard Business Schools buildings have received the "all clear" for occupants to return, as the investigation into a bomb threat received Wednesday morning continues.

Harvard lifted the evacuation order shortly after 2 p.m., after a reported bomb threat shut seven campus buildings down this morning. The impacted buildings have been investigated and deemed safe, the university said.

According to the university, Harvard Business School buildings Morgan, Esteves, Aldrich, Chao, Tata, Hawes and Batten were evacuated. The threat apparently only extended to those buildings in question.

Two weeks earlier, nearby Tufts University evacuated buildings after an apparently false bomb threat. The precautionary partial lock-down on campus there followed an early-a.m. car fire and threatening note.

Harvard's investigation into the threat is ongoing, the university said.
