Update: bomb threat lifted at Colchester East Hants Hospital in Truro

A hospital in Truro is no longer under a Code Black after an earlier bomb threat.

Nova Scotia Health thanks all team members for “working through such difficult circumstances” and to patients who were “inconvenienced” by the situation.

The hospital was no evacuated, but the public was asked to avoid the area.

Meanwhile, police were also dealing with a bomb threat at the Mayflower Mall in Sydney, Thursday afternoon.
