Postal Threat to "Detonate a Bomb" at General Hospital... Police Search Finds Nothing View original image

A threatening letter claiming that a bomb would be detonated at a general hospital was delivered, prompting the police to launch an investigation.


According to the Dongdaemun Police Station in Seoul on the 4th, four letters containing the message, "If department head-level personnel are not appointed by a certain date, a homemade bomb will be detonated," were delivered to a general hospital in Seoul.


At around 3:30 PM that day, the police received a report and issued and dispatched the highest emergency alert in the response manual, 'Code Zero' (CODE 0). The police searched the hospital building for about two and a half hours but found no explosives or unusual items.



The police are tracking the sender, not ruling out the possibility that the sender is an insider at the hospital.
