Humphreys County, Tenn.–The Humphreys County Sheriff Office is still investigating a bomb threat at the Pilot Travel Center on Hwy 13S off of I40 at exit 143. The threat shut down the Travel Center for several hours this morning.
The K-9 unit from the Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office helped to clear the premises so that it could reopen for business.
The sheriff’s office said, “We have no indication that this is anything more than a hoax but we are currently investigating and trying to determine if any suspicious packages need further investigation. Montgomery County Sheriff is sending additional resources to assist with the investigation. We hope to have this resolved soon.”
