Cornell police officers spent nearly two hours searching Sage Hall today after a bomb threat was sent via e-mail to a University faculty member.
At around 11 a.m., the Cornell Police Department evacuated Sage after the faculty member turned over an e-mail claiming a bomb had been planted in the building. The CUPD reopened the building, home to the Johnson Graduate School of Management, two hours later after a search yielded no signs of a threat.
By last night, the CUPD had not yet released the source of the e-mail or the faculty member who first reported the threat, according to Cornell Press Relations.
