DALLAS (CBS 11 NEWS) - For more than an hour this morning, the library honoring George W. Bush in Dallas was shut down and evacuated due to a bomb threat.

The Bush Center was cleared after a staff member found a bomb threat written on the wall of a bathroom around 11 am.

SMU and University Park Police were called to the scene, along with fire personnel.  After a search of the facility and a determination that there was no threat, visitors were allowed to return to the building, shortly before 1 pm.
