Bomb threats reported in 18 JCCs across US
Paul Goldenberg, the director of Secure Community Networks, says there were bomb threats called to Jewish institutions in Miami; Edison, New Jersey; Cincinnati; Alabama, and on the West Coast. News reports also cited threats in Albany, New York; Nashville; suburban Boston and Detroit; West Hartford, Connecticut, and the Orlando area.
Whether the institutions, which include schools and community centers, evacuated depended on the practices of local law enforcement, Goldenberg said.
“It’s the second salvo in 10 days. We’re asking people to ensure they stay in contact with local law enforcement,” he says.
