– Police in New Jersey are investigating a bomb threat at the American Dream Mall and all shoppers are being evacuated, Governor Phil Murphy said in a social media post on Friday.
The mall is located at the New Jersey Meadowlands Sports Complex in East Rutherford, home to the New York Giants and Jets National Football League teams.
“The New Jersey State Police is investigating a bomb threat at the American Dream Mall,” Murphy said in a post on the X social media network.
“If you’re on site, all customers, tenants, and employees should follow guidance from law enforcement and walk to the nearest exit and safely evacuate the building out of an abundance of caution.”
He did not give more details. The police and the mall did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
