The Children’s Wisconsin hospital campus in Wauwatosa is returning to normal operations following a security scare yesterday.
Authorities lifted a two-hour lockdown after police searched the main hospital and outpatient clinics, finding no suspicious items or credible threats.
During the emergency, patients and families were instructed to shelter in place while officers cleared the facilities.
Police confirmed the bomb threat was a hoax, noting Children’s Wisconsin is one of several pediatric hospitals nationwide targeted by similar false threats this week.
