NEW YORK (Press Release)– The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) on Wednesday received an anonymous bomb threat called into its national headquarters in Midtown Manhattan. After a careful investigation and cooperation with law enforcement, it has been determined that the threat was not credible.
Jonathan A. Greenblatt, ADL CEO, issued the following statement:
“Today, our national headquarters in New York received an anonymous bomb threat. While there is no information at this time to indicate that this is more than a threat, we are taking it very seriously and working closely with law enforcement officials to determine if it is connected to similar threats against Jewish institutions across the country.
“This is not the first time that ADL has been targeted, and it will not deter us in our efforts to combat anti-Semitism and hate against people of all races and religions.”
