State buildings in Mississippi, Arkansas and Florida again receive several bomb threats

State buildings in Mississippi, Arkansas and Florida received new bomb threats Thursday, just one day after several state capitols, including Mississippi's, were evacuated for the same reason.

Arkansas and Florida, also victims of fake bomb threats

In Arkansas, a State Capitol Police spokesman told NBC that the Pulaski County Courthouse in Little Rock was forced to evacuate after receiving a bomb threat.

Finally, the latest threat was received by the Fifth District Court of Appeal in Daytona Beach, Fla. As reported by Spectrum News, in this case, the alert came via email, and Daytona Beach police decided to inform state and federal anuthorities about the incident.

After a brief search conducted by authorities at the 300 Beach Street building, the alert was deactivated and activity in the building was resumed. Authorities in all of these southern states continue to investigate these alerts as they increase security measures.
