Bomb threat prompts evacuation at San Francisco airport, person detained
Passengers were evacuated from the international terminal at San Francisco International Airport Friday night because of a bomb threat, authorities said.
Officers assigned to the airport received a report of a bomb threat around 8:15 p.m., found a suspicious package and "deemed the item possibly incendiary," said Officer Robert Rueca, a San Francisco Police Department spokesperson.
A man has been detained in connection with the incident, Rueca said.
Additional police resources, including the Explosive Ordnance Disposal Unit, have been deployed, and an investigation is underway, he said.
