San Antonio airport evacuated after bomb threat
SAN ANTONIO (AP) — A bomb threat cleared out San Antonio International Airport on Wednesday after officials said someone called alleging three packages had been left inside a parking garage.
Passengers inside the terminal were herded onto the tarmac, arriving planes stayed parked away from the gates and dozens of firefighters combed the airport searching for explosives. San Antonio Fire Department spokeswoman Deborah Foster said she did not yet know Wednesday afternoon whether anything dangerous had been found.
"It was three packages in a parking garage," Foster said of the phone call to the airport. "Whether they found any, I'm not sure."
Airport spokesman Rich Johnson said the evacuation order was called at 2:35 p.m. Johnson didn't immediately know how many passengers were inside the terminal at the time.

Security Lines have now been opened and passengers are making their way back to the gate areas. It looks like airport operations are back to normal. Airliners are now parked at gates in both terminals. Luckily, it looks like there were no explosives found.
