Breaking News: Bomb Threat At The White House! ~ WELCOME TO LEYMAR'S BLOG

The White House Press Briefing Room in the West Wing of the White House was evacuated today after a bomb threat, shortly after the Capitol community had its own scare when a bomb threat was phoned into a Senate office building.

Metropolitan Police received a bomb threat against the White House over the phone at 1:53 p.m., according to Secret Service spokesman Brian Leary.
The briefing room was evacuated as a precaution, and was the only part of the White House evacuated, according to White House Spokesman Josh Earnest. See photos of people being evacuated from the press room below;
