April 11th, 2019: The Tippecanoe County Courthouse is back in session after it was evacuated due to a bomb threat this morning. No explosives were found.

Around 8:30 Thursday morning, someone called the clerk's office and told them where the bombs would be and what time they would go off. It was the specific details in the threat that made courthouse security decide to evacuate.

Everyone left the building for about an hour while bomb dogs sniffed the area and law enforcement searched for explosives.
