MPD reports 12th Street NW between E and F Streets NW is closed due to police activity. Please avoid the area.
Readers report:
firetrucks blocking off 12 & F NW. Hazmat suits and firemen going into a manhole??
This is my office building, weve been told its not a test and we arent allowed to leave/go into the stairwells. Hazmat everywhere.

Update: 12:20 pm: MPD reports the police activity has cleared on 12th Street between E and F Streets NW. The associated road closures are now open.
Poster on the thread says it was a bomb threat. Glad it was apparently not a real threat.

I hope the threat is brought under control and nullified fast. May you, and all in the area be safe. Sending good vibes. Keep us at DU posted.
