I wasn’t sure where I should “report” this, as I have no links or further info. a this time...
My husband just returned home from a trip to our local Wal-Mart (Rib Mountain/Wausau WI). According to what he told me everyone in the store was ordered to drop everything and leave due to a bomb threat somewhere between 3:00pm and 3:30pm.
He said it took him 20 minutes to get out of the store due to the amount of people inside trying to get out of the two entrances. I have yet to find any information at any of our local news stations. I don’t have any further information at this time, and I have no idea if information will be forthcoming... My husband was late for work, and that was pretty much what was on his mind at this point. He said there wasn’t much panic, just a lot of confusion...
If any of you are the praying kind please pray that they find whatever jerk, or punk kid(?) decided to make this threat. We have a wonderful community here, and to tell you the truth I’m in complete shock at this point...
I will update here on the thread if I find out any further information.
UPDATE: I just notified my local FOX News station - hopefully they will be able to find out more information. I will let you all know if they cover this in their news broadcasts, or cut in, etc...
Probably just a hoax but what a scary though. Walmart has doors all over the place though....I wonder why it was crowded getting out. Maybe all using the same ones?
Since 911 I look for exits when I go in places. I used to only do that with hotels.
Thanks for the alert.
20 minutes to get out, could have been a lifetime and would have felt like two.
Hard to guess, why it was done, but it worked, think of the thousands of lost dollars to Walmart.
Let’s see what in the news now:

Several to Walmart, but not in your area.
I’ll post a link when I find it, Liberty Rocks.
