Two Tokyo Courts Cancel Trials After Bomb Threat
Two courts in Tokyo have canceled trials scheduled for early Monday afternoon due to a bomb threat.
The Tokyo High Court says someone threatened to blow up a government building in central Tokyo around 1:30 p.m. on Monday.
The building houses the high court and the Tokyo District Court.
After consulting the police, the high court limited entry to the building for two hours from noon, and visitors were evacuated.
The trials scheduled at the two courts between 1 and 2:30 p.m. were also canceled.
