NEW YORK, July 4 (UPI) -- A bomb threat prompted the precautionary evacuation of the John F. Kennedy International Airport terminal in New York Sunday evening, authorities said.
John Kelly, a spokesman with the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, told CNN the terminal was emptied about 5:40 p.m. after an anonymous caller warned of a bomb not long after a Port Authority officer spotted an unattended bag. The terminal was reopened about 2 1/2 hours later when it was determined there was no bomb, CNN said.
The bag was checked by authorities, who determined there were no explosives in it, CNN reported.
