Bomb threat forces evacuation of Apple Sacramento offices

updated 03:45 pm EDT, Mon March 28, 2011

No accounts of damage or injuries


A bomb threat at an Apple distribution center in Elk Grove, California -- on the outskirts of Sacramento -- today triggered the evacuation of three buildings, according to AppleInsider sources. Specifically the A, B and C buildings on the eastern side of the facility were reportedly cleared out at about 9:30AM local time. By 11:30, emergency crews were still said to be in the area.

Among other structures Apple has three warehouses at the Elk Grove center measuring a total of 450,000 square feet. The evacuated buildings are said to be used for returns, finances, human resource operations and housing refurbished goods. There is no word on the nature of the threat, nor of any injuries or damage.

    Was it a stink bomb?

    In that case my suspicion falls squarely on Wrenchy or Testicles.
    On second thought, that ain't their M.O. They only toss their stinkers into the MacNN forums.
