“A call came in, a sweep was done and nothing was found,” Anthony Cureton of the Bergen County Sheriff’s Office told CLIFFVIEW PILOT just after 1:30 p.m. “There was nothing to it.”

Port Authority police covered Fort Lee 911 calls while all available municipal police responded with the sheriff’s bomb squad.

The building houses Telemundo, among other clients.

CNBC, which used to be there, has its headquarters in Englewood Cliffs now.
