BOSTON (WHDH) - Boston Police are on scene at Boston Children’s Hospital to respond to a threat made against the hospital shortly before noon.
Boston Children’s Hospital shared the following statement:
“We are working to understand the full details of this situation, however, any threats of violence against our employees, doctors, or patients – and the hate speech that is inciting these types of acts – must be fully dealt with by law enforcement. We are deeply relieved there was no bomb found on site, but this type of extremist behavior must end, and we condemn it in the strongest terms. We are working with local, state, and federal law enforcement authorities and outside experts to hold accountable the individuals threatening our providers and patients. The safety and security of our staff, our patients, and their families remain our top priority and we have put in place additional security measures to continue our lifesaving healthcare. We will do everything we can to ensure our people are protected and that those responsible for these threats are brought to justice.”
