The FBI has determined that the bomb threat against a Los Angeles-area subway station earlier this week wasn't credible, local news media reported.
On Monday, the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (Metro) said it received an anonymous tip about a plan to attack the Red Line's Universal Station in Studio City, Calif. The agency boosted security across its system and began working with local law enforcement and the FBI to evaluate the threat.
