Police evacuated several buildings at Harvard Business School in response to a reported bomb threat, Harvard University Police Department spokesperson Steven G. Catalano wrote in an email to Harvard affiliates Wednesday morning.

In an update sent at 11:24 am, Catalano said seven buildings had been evacuated: Morgan Hall, Esteves Hall, Aldrich Hall, Chao Center, Tata Hall, Hawes Hall, and Batten Hall. Catalano's email advised people not in those buildings to remain where they were.
