Ann Arbor police say a bomb threat was reported at a Jewish Community Center in Ann Arbor, specifically the Hebrew Day School of Ann Arbor.

The call came in about 9 a.m. and said there was a bomb inside the school.

Police say they arrived and evacuated the entire building, while Michigan State Police bomb dogs were called in and on scene.

The building has since reopened. 

This comes on the heels of a bomb threat at the Jewish Community Center in West Bloomfield last month.

In all, there have been seven different threats to Jewish Community Centers in the United States on Monday.

They happened in Florida, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Alabama and Indiana

According to CNN, there were 11 bomb threats at Jewish Community Centers across the country last week, and the total number of threats is nearly 70.
