Eiffel Tower Evacuated Again Due To Bomb Threat

Eiffel Tower Evacuated Again Due To Bomb Threat

The Eiffel Tower was evacuated for the second time this month Tuesday evening.

The area was cleared due to a bomb threat, AFP reports. The Eiffel Tower was also evacuated just two weeks ago, but that turned out to be a false alarm.

France has been on high alert for terrorism since last week due to multiple threats.

Security has been tight and tensions high, and yesterday a suspicious package caused diversions and delays for Paris subway stations.

UPDATE: Police say no bomb was found.
