Crap! And FR's running weird as well.

Hope it's nothing major.

NOVASTAR is the company that received the two packages, employees are not allowed to comment at this point in time.

opened a suspicious package, several people are ill and have received medical treatment.

"...the building that houses several companies on Oak Tree Blvd, opened a suspicious package..."

Must be one of them smart buildings!

Thanks for the post from the news - grammar and spelling be damned! Hope these folks will be okay and it's not too serious. And hope it's just a supply of cleaners or chemicals that got broken during shipping or something.

INDEPENDENCE – All employees in the Clear Channel building in Independence have been evacuated from their facility Monday.

Around 3:30 p.m. this afternoon, there were reports of a suspicious package on the third floor of the building located at 6200 Oak Tree.


HAZMAT crews have been called to the scene and an investigation is now underway.


One person is confirmed as being ill.


Sources say this incident is forcing a scheduled in-studio acoustic concert to be performed outside in the parking lot.

[maestro]

?...boxes everywhere?

?...Cleveland Radio is 'Cracking' up?

....more to follow?

/sarcasm in Cleveland's 'crack' journalism?

Thanks for ping Dave. I have been listening almost full time to WHK rather than WTAM.. I still like Rush now & then, but the rest of the lineup sucks.

Hope all are okay. Bet it is a mess on 77/480 area as a result

I watched most of this, since I work for Thomson/West just across the street and down the block. The all clear was given at about 5:20, after Hazmat teams detected no chemical, nuclear or biological threat.

Cleveland is a "blue" city it will not be hit according to Bin Laden. In this case I believe him.
