Americans For Tax Reform Back to Work After Bomb Scare

Safe to say that Elmo isn’t a suspect.

The staff of Americans For Tax Reform were briefly evacuated from their DC headquarters this morning as police responded to a bomb threat against the building. No explosives were found and the staff has returned to work.

The call came in around 9:10 Monday morning, according to a police spokesperson contacted by TPM. The officer could not say how long the staff was evacuated but said police had allowed them to return to work by the time we called at around 11:00 AM.

Also, no word if this is the Bizarro Grover at work.
