The Staten Island Advance reports, "Police officers are evacuating the St. George and Whitehall ferry terminals after a bomb threat was called in, a source told the Advance." The caller allegedly said that a bomb would go off at the "Staten Island Ferry Terminal at 9:30 a.m.” It's unclear which terminal the caller was referring to, so "Both terminals on the Staten Island and Manhattan sides are currently being swept by bomb-sniffing dogs." Update: The terminals reopened after the dogs found nothing suspicious.
