Bomb threat prompts evacuation at South Fulton Postal Service facility
An employee at a United States Postal Service facility in the 120 block of Villanova Drive in South Fulton discovered a suspicious device around 7 a.m. on Thursday. The employee promptly contacted South Fulton police, who evacuated the building and closed the surrounding roads. Police spokesperson Tori Cooper advised residents to avoid the area, which is located near Fulton Industrial Boulevard.

No injuries were reported, and the situation was resolved without further complications. The police department continues to monitor the area for safety.
