A bomb threat was made to the US Supreme Court Wednesday ahead of the inauguration of Joe Biden as president, but nothing was found by security personnel, the court said.
“The court received a bomb threat, the building and grounds were checked out, and the building is not being evacuated,” said high court spokeswoman Kathleen Arberg.
