Bloomfield Bomb Threat Unfounded: Police

A bomb threat in Bloomfield continues to be investigated but so far the claim is unfounded, police said. 

Jacobs Vehicle Systems' security on Dudley Town Road informed police that they had received a bomb threat at 2:51 p.m. on Tuesday. 

Police said people inside had already been evacuated when officers arrived at the scene. 

Bloomfield and Windsor police blocked off Old Iron Ore Road and East Dudley Town Road, which are adjacent to the building. 

A search was conducted after additional resources, including fire, EMS, state police's bomb squad, were called to the scene. 

No devices or suspicious packages were found at the business or surrounding areas, police said.

Officers advised school officials to secure children and staff at the Capitol Region Education Council and Academy of Aerospace & Engineering Elementary School as a precaution during the initial investigation. Police also had Jacobs Manufacturing evacuate. 

The investigation is ongoing. Anyone with information regarding the incident is asked to contact the Bloomfield Police Department at 860-242-5501.
