Several state capitols were locked down or evacuated due to bomb threats, with multiple reports of police investigations.

Connecticut, Georgia, Kentucky, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, and Montana were included in a list of states that evacuated offices or buildings.

No explosives have been found despite a recent trend of false reports of shootings at the homes of public officials, the Seattle Times reported.

Georgia Secretary of State Gabriel Sterling (R) noted a bomb threat in the early morning on his X account:

"Starting 2024 with a bomb threat at the Georgia State Capitol. Delayed opening until the all clear is given. Avoid the area for now."

Sterling later updated followers of multiple bomb threats at other state capitols but urged readers not to jump to conclusions:

"Do not jump to conclusions as to who is responsible. There will be chaos agents sowing discord for 2024. They want to increase tensions. Don’t let them"

There have been multiple bomb threats to state capitols around the nation. So far Georgia, Kentucky, Michigan & Montana. Do not jump to conclusions as to who is responsible. There will be chaos agents sowing discord for 2024. They want to increase tensions. Don\xe2\x80\x99t let them.

Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear stated that his government was investigating a bomb threat that was received in the secretary of state's office.

A spokesperson for Kentucky Secretary of State Michael Adams spoke to the Lexington Herald Leader and said the state’s capitol building was evacuated after an email threat said bombs were placed in state buildings.

"[State police] has asked everyone to evacuate the state Capitol and is investigating a threat received by the Secretary of State’s Office. We are aware of similar threats made to other offices across the country," the governor wrote.

The Connecticut State Capitol was evacuated after a threat claimed there were multiple explosives in the building, Time reported.

"The Connecticut State Capitol Police received complaints from numerous employees about a suspicious email that was received," said Scott Driscoll, a member of the Connecticut State Capitol Police Department.

"The email, which apparently was sent to numerous states, claimed to have placed multiple explosives in the Capitol Building,” he told the Hartford Courant.

The Connecticut building was later reopened after an investigation.

The Mississippi Capitol was locked down after a bomb threat, also in the morning. The building was later evacuated to make way for bomb-sniffing dogs.

"This is an ongoing investigation and there is no further threat to the Capitol or surrounding buildings,” a spokesperson for the Mississippi Department of Public Safety, Bailey Martin, said, also per the Seattle Times.

Police made a sweep of the Montana Capitol but found previous bomb threats to not be credible. The legislature was able to be reopened within two hours of the alleged threat.

Wyoming's state buildings did not close, despite receiving a threatening email.

Many outlets have reported on a mass email being sent to multiple state entities, but no other information has been provided at this time.
