Atlanta police were investigating bomb threats at three CVS stores late Wednesday, but no explosive devices were found.

It wasn’t immediately known if all three were related, according to Officer John Chafee. But in all three cases, the caller threatened blow up the store and demanded money, Chafee said.

“No explosive devices were located and it does not appear that the caller received any money,” Chafee told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution.

The three stores are located at 3637 Peachtree St., 12 Broad St. and 680 Ponce de Leon Ave.

The threats remain under investigation, Chafee said.
