Monday September 17 12:08 PM ET Justice Department Evacuated After Bomb Threat WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The U.S. Justice Department (news - web sites) was evacuated Monday after a bomb threat was received, with fire alarms sounding through the building as officers entered with bomb- sniffing dogs to begin a search.

Justice Department officials said the complex had been cleared because of a bomb threat but had no other details on how the threat had been made.

Security has been tight in the United States since last week's attacks at the Pentagon (news - web sites) near Washington and the World Trade Center in New York that likely killed thousands of people.

Justice workers were told by department personnel to go away from the building, across Pennsylvania Avenue, and stand on the sidewalk by the nearby headquarters of the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
