On September 26 at 12:17 a.m., Halifax Regional Police responded to a building located in the 5600 block of Spring Garden Road, Halifax for a bomb threat after a call service received a threatening phone call from an anonymous caller. Once on scene police determined the wrong address was provided by the complainant and the threat was actually directed to a building located in the 100 block of Wyse Road, Dartmouth. Police quickly contained the area shutting down parts of Wyse Road, Nantucket Avenue and as a precaution the Angus L. Macdonald Bridge was closed.
The building was thoroughly searched with the assistance of K9 and nothing suspicious was located.
All roads and the Angus L. Macdonald Bridge are now open.
The investigation is continuing. Anyone with information about this incident is asked to contact police at 902-490-5016. Anonymous tips can be sent to Crime Stoppers by calling toll-free 1-800-222-TIPS (8477), submitting a secure web tip at www.crimestoppers.ns.ca or using the P3 Tips App.
