"An anonymous call was received through Texas A&M University Technology Services Help Desk Central that made reference to the stadium," the latest update stated. "University Police was immediately notified. Evacuation procedures were initiated for the stadium and the adjoining Bright Football Complex as a precaution.
"Members of the College Station Bomb Unit, Texas Department of Public Safety and the Federal Bureau of Investigation assisted University Police officers in conducting the searches. Three University Police K-9s that specialize in explosive detection were also involved in the searches. The facilities were cleared by law enforcement at 3:45 p.m., and a Code Maroon was issued notifying the campus community. As this is an active investigation, no additional information can be released at this time."
