ABC27 News reported that the Pennsylvania State Capitol building in Harrisburg was evacuated on Saturday following a bomb threat emailed to lawmakers.

The email, titled 'My Manifesto,' was sent shortly before 6 pm local time. The sender claimed to have placed multiple “highly lethal lead azide devices” around the Capitol building. Lead azide is a compound typically used in detonators for explosives.

The individual behind the threat stated the act was done "for Palestine" and warned of continued detonations "every few hours" until President Joe Biden publicly denounced the State of Israel.
