CNN offices and studios evacuated after bomb threat

CNN offices and studios in New York were evacuated on Thursday night after a bomb threat was phoned in to the news network.

Police conducted a “comprehensive sweep-and-search” of the Time Warner building at 25 Columbus Circle, after receiving a threat made to a building housing CNN’s offices in Manhattan. The NYPD later issued an all-clear and said pedestrian traffic was reopened.

CNN said several fire alarm bells signalling an evacuation rang inside its newsroom shortly after 10:30 pm.
