Paris: Eiffel Tower bomb threat

Paris: Eiffel Tower bomb threat

The Eiffel Tower and a train station were evacuated tonight after police received an anonymous bomb threat. Thousands of people were evacuated from the tower and the surrounding area while police searched the building floor by floor.

The Twitterverse is linking this to the Burka-ban vote, but if this is a real bomb, I don't know of any case where Muslim terrorists warned of their attack ahead of time.

Update: False alarm.
