MENLO PARK -- The headquarters of social media giant Facebook was temporarily flooded with officers and cordoned off Tuesday evening after a threat against the company was called in to authorities, Menlo Park police said, but the threat was quickly cleared.
The threat was originally called into the San Francisco Police Department around 7 p.m., said Menlo Park police Cmdr. Dave Bertini.
The department transferred the call to Menlo Park officers, who went to the campus and closed off the entrance with tape. Officers searched the campus, while the company asked its employees to stay put before police could prove or disprove the threat.
"At this point, we're not even sure the call was meant to be for the Menlo Park campus," Bertini said.
