No explosives found at Seoul stadium after bomb threat against Ohtani

After conducting a search of Seoul’s Gocheok Sky Dome in response to a rumored bomb threat against Los Angeles Dodgers star Shohei Ohtani, South Korean police on Wednesday ( Mar 20 ) said no explosives had been discovered at the venue.

In two activities on Wednesday and Thursday to kick off the Major League Baseball season, the Dodgers travel to the South Vietnamese capital to take on the San Diego Padres.

For the first time in South Korea, MLB has opened the normal time.

The sun attachment is Japan’s Ohtani, whom the Dodgers in December signed to a 10- year lease for US$ 700 million. He has been referred to as a modern adaptation of Babe Ruth.

After unique investigators searched the building in the morning, Seoul’s Guro district police office informed AFP that authorities had not discovered anything at the location.

” We received a statement about a possible explosive device, and searched the page, but we found nothing”, standard Kim Seung- beom told AFP.

Before the market is permitted to enter the Clouds Dome afterwards, before the game tonight, we intend to conduct a second search.

Mike Schildt, the director of the San Diego Padres, stated that he had” full confidence” in South Korea’s security and the MLB.

” We feel safe and we have n’t really given it a second thought, quite honestly”, he said.
