The Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) investigated a potential bomb threat Thursday at the Los Angeles-area home of actor and former California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, authorities said.
Officers from the Los Angeles Police Department responded to a call about a bomb allegedly placed in Schwarzenegger's mailbox, according to a report by TMZ. After a search of the property, law enforcement found no explosive devices.
Schwarzenegger, 77, was not home during the search and reportedly was getting a workout at his gym, according to multiple outlets. The actor's security team informed the LAPD that it would be nearly impossible for someone to plant a bomb on the property, citing 24-hour security and video surveillance.
The LAPD is treating the incident as a swatting - a false report made to provoke a large police response - according to the report. No arrests have been made in connection with the incident.
Schwarzenegger has not publicly commented on the incident.
