All Fort Worth Public Libraries are reopening Tuesday after closing abruptly Monday due to emailed threats.
Fort Worth police officials were called at 4:45 p.m. Monday by a library employee who said they received bomb threats at multiple libraries via email.
Investigators later learned other cities in the area received similar emails from an unknown person and determined the IP address that was used originated from outside of the United States, according to police.
The library added that there is no threat at this time but an investigation is ongoing. Library officials said late Monday night that they planned to reopen on Tuesday.
