Bomb threat cleared at Evanston hospital

Police gave the all clear Tuesday after a suspicious package found outside Endeavor Health Evanston Hospital prompted the building to be locked down for a bomb threat investigation.

Officials closed the hospital around 5:30 p.m. and deployed a drone to survey the “suspicious package with wires protruding from it,” Evanston police said in a statement. The Cook County Bomb Squad was also on the scene.


The area around the hospital was reopened around 8:10 p.m. after the package was determined not to be a threat, police said.
