Bomb threats at Grand Central and La Guardia today... Couldn't find any links yet but just spoke to a friend who was told to leave his office near Grand Central... Apparently a number of people were running through the streets but none of them seemed to really know much about why... Any info?

Every wacko in the world is going to have a field day terrorizing people with fake bomb threats for a while.

The NYT reports these are yet more false alarms.

I believe there was a threat in Times Square as well. A friend of mine just got evacuated from her building at work. Also have heard a rumor of a bomb threat in Union Square, not sure about that one though.

I had gotten a report from someone that was there, that Newark Airport also had a bomb scare, but I have been unable to confirm that through any reliable news sources.
