Morristown Municipal Complex Evacuated Earlier After Bomb Scare

MORRISTOWN, NJ— The Morristown Municipal Complex was evacuated Tuesday morning after a bomb threat was called in, township officials said. This was the second threat against a Morris County government building in the same day.

The bomb threat was directed at the Morristown Municipal Court around 10 a.m., Susie Sefcik said in a press release. As a precaution, the entire complex was evacuated.

The building was searched by bomb sniffing dogs, and no suspicious packages or materials were found. Employees have since returned to the building.

It was not immediately clear if this threat was related to the one against a government building in Madison, as Patch reported earlier.
