The Ross Park Mall is slated to open at 11 a.m. after being shut down by a bomb threat this morning.

Ten bomb-sniffing dogs were summoned from area police departments but found no device in the building, Ross Detective Brian Kohlhepp said.

An employee found the threat about 5:50 a.m., Detective Kohlhepp said. The mall was evacuated and township police blocked all entrances from McKnight Road.
