LAKE COUNTY, Fla. A bomb threat shut down LakeXpress bus service Thursday morning over a bomb threat, authorities said.
The Lake County Sheriffs Office bomb squad was on scene and searching buses.
One bus in South Leesburg was evacuated and passengers were checked out.
No devices have been found so far.

this is so evil
these pukes dont have to do anything but call in threats...
Has been three times and counting, we know of per news reports.
Four ... Jed, let’s scatter. Don’t depend on four warnings, please.
I wonder if instead of publicizing threats like this, they blamed something more benign, would we have less copycats and sickos calling in threats?
Had 3 or 4 here in NE Fla. in the last week or so, all have been called into schools.
If it's some casual, unsophisticated copycat he'll get caught pretty quick. If it's terrorists trying to disrupt life, use up LEO resources and get more of our freedoms taken away then the game is afoot.
I have to wonder how the Israelis deal with these types threats.
those crazies at the Villages again?
Sooner or later it will be blamed on George Zimmerman.
Guys on bikes did this?
That's the latest update. They supposedly told the bus driver there was a bomb on the bus and he alerted law enforcement. These guys are about to have a bad day since the driver has a description and local LEOs are pissed. Also the Feds are involved so this should get interesting.
