2. Courthouses and other government buildings in 30 Tennessee counties received bomb threats Tuesday, making it the fifth state this month to see a similar round of false alarms. No explosive devices had been found in any of the counties where threats were called in, said Dalya Qualls, a spokeswoman for the state's Department of Homeland Security. Tennessee's bomb scares came eight days after similar threats were made to 28 courthouses and a state office building in Oregon and within a month of similar incidents around Nebraska and Washington. Local authorities are still investigating the nature and cause of such threats.
