Children's Wisconsin Milwaukee Hospital Campus Lifts Lockdown After Non-Credible Bomb Threat
The Children's Wisconsin Milwaukee Hospital campus was placed on lockdown following a bomb threat. Wauwatosa Police Department officers were dispatched to the scene to investigate the threat. Out of an abundance of caution, the entire campus was secured, and the public, including patients, families, and staff not currently on campus, was asked to avoid the area. Employees and staff were directed to refer to internal communications for updates. After a thorough investigation and a sweep of the campus, law enforcement officials determined that the bomb threat was not credible, and no suspicious objects were found. Consequently, the lockdown was lifted, and normal operations have resumed at the hospital campus. The incident caused temporary disruption and concern among those present and those attempting to access the facility.
