The police is investigating a bomb threat in one of Facebook's buildings in Menlo Park in the San Francisco Bay Area of California, the United States, after it was evacuated, local media reported.

Bomb threat in one of the buildings on Facebook campus in Menlo Park, California, has not been confirmed, Menlo Park Police Department said in a statement.

"The San Mateo County bomb unit was dispatched with explosive detection dogs that conducted a sweep of the building and found no suspicious packages or devices," the police said.

The building is clear and secure, it added.

Earlier, the police responded to a bomb threat that forced an evacuation of at least one building on the Facebook campus. The police reportedly received an anonymous phone call on the bomb threat.
