DENVER (KDVR) — Aurora police responded to a shopping center near South Peoria Street and East Cornell Avenue on Monday evening for a reported bomb threat that was found to be unsubstantiated.

The Aurora Police Department’s bomb unit was on scene to investigate a bomb threat reported inside the King Soopers store located in the shopping center. Police issued a shelter-in-place order for residents from Cornell Avenue to East Dartmouth Avenue and from Peoria Street to Interstate 25, which was lifted at about 6:30 p.m.

During the investigation, the intersection was closed to traffic. Motorists in the area were asked to use Yale Avenue as an alternate east-west route and Havana Street as an alternate north-south route.

An individual in the area told FOX31’s Shaul Turner that they arrived at the store at 3:40 p.m. and by that time the store was being evacuated. Police told Turner that a tip had been called in citing five bombs in a store, but nothing was found Monday evening.
