Calgary Police responded to the Ambrose University College campus in the city’s southwest Monday evening after receiving a bomb threat.
Duty Inspector Darren Cave says they got the call just after 6 p.m. from a man in a payphone.
He tells 660News, the man gave a time the bomb was set to go off, the building in question was evacuated and the time expired without incident.
One caller to 660News says she saw a number students huddled together praying in one of the back parking lots.
Police searched the building and didn’t find any evidence of a bomb.
City buses were brought in to keep students and staff warm while police conducted their search.
An investigation has been launched into the incident.
