Bomb Threats and Chaos: Lancaster City Evacuation Lifted

Residents in Lancaster City, Pennsylvania, were evacuated following bomb threats in the 100 block of N. Lime Street and the 100 block of N. Queen Street, as well as a suspicious package found at the public library. The Pennsylvania State Police Bomb Squad was called to the library and cleared the scene, with subsequent investigations leading to the closure of the area for a couple of hours. The threats disrupted a Drag Story Hour event and prompted strong statements from law enforcement and county officials, who emphasized the need to hold those responsible accountable. Despite the disruptions, no explosives were found, and residents were eventually allowed to return home.
