Baltimore/Washington Airport closed as police look into ‘bomb threat’

Traffic going to Baltimore/Washington Thurgood Marshall Airport (BWI) was stopped on Wednesday because police were looking into a bomb threat involving a vehicle.

The roads going to and from the international airport in Maryland were shut down for a serious police investigation at around 3. 00pm

The airport said that traffic going to the airport is not allowed right now. People in the terminal should stay where they are for now.

CNN was informed by sources that someone had threatened to explode a bomb inside a car parked near the airport curb.

At around 4. 20pm, the airport reported that the police confirmed that the vehicle in question was safe, and they would gradually start opening the roads again.

They are still looking into what happened.
