Chabad in Orlando evacuated over threat — third since Wednesday
For the second time in as many days, the Chabad of south Orlando has been evacuated over an unspecified threat made over the phone, local news in central Florida reports.
Police are investigating the Jewish center, which mainly serves tourists visiting the city’s theme parks.
On Wednesday, the same center was evacuated over a bomb threat, though no explosives were found.
At the same time, a bomb threat was also called in to a Jewish Community Center in the Orlando suburb of Maitland, which also turned out to be a false alarm.
