The Beverly Hills Police Department (BHPD) received a bomb threat on April 19, leading to a multi-hour search focused around BHPD headquarters and the closure of streets in front of the department and City Hall. While the threat did not materialize after a multi-hour search, BHPD has opened an investigation into the call that set off alarms.
“We received a call into our dispatch center around 8 p.m.,” said BHPD spokesperson Acting Captain Max Subin. “We used our K9 units to sweep the area to locate any suspicious device(s).”
