The Lethbridge Police Service (LPS) says there was no risk to the public after a bomb threat was made.
Around 6:30 p.m. on Thursday, January 2, 2025, police say there was a “swatting” hoax, where a person makes a false report to emergency services to get law enforcement to respond.
LPS says it received a call from an unknown person at the Pure Casino Lethbridge, who claimed that the building was going to explode.
While officers were responding, security members at the casino reported a suspicious package left inside.
