Halifax man charged after bomb threat at U.S. Consulate

A 54-year-old man was charged with making a bomb threat against the U.S. Consulate in Halifax, prompting a five-hour evacuation. Police found propane and flammable liquids in his vehicle, but an explosives expert determined they posed no threat. The incident follows two shootings at the U.S. consulate in Toronto this year.
