NPR reports that the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts was evacuated yesterday following a phoned-in bomb threat. The threat was aimed at Shen Yun, a touring dance troupe linked to the religious group Falun Gong, which is banned in China. The group had booked one of the KenCen theatres for its show.
No harmful material was found and the Center resumed business by noon.
