COLLEGE STATION, Texas (AP) - Authorities at Texas A&M University are investigating a bomb threat at the Clayton Williams Alumni Center that's led to the evacuation of about 100 people.

Officials at the school in College Station were notified of the threat about 9:25 a.m. Friday and a "Code Maroon" advisory was issued.

As of 11:08 a.m., campus officials gave the all clear and allowed everyone back into the building.

It's the second bomb threat on campus this week. Kyle Field and adjacent buildings were evacuated Wednesday after a threatening message was found scrawled on a wall. Nothing was found.
