A terminal at John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York was evacuated Sunday evening for about two hours after a caller phoned in a threat. A female caller claimed there was a bomb in Terminal One in a call about 5:40 p.m. At the same time airport personnel noted a suspicious bag or package in that terminal.
About 300 people were inside at the time.
Once the terminal had been searched, the evacuation was ended shortly after 8 p.m.
