NEW YORK (1010 WINS) — The NYPD warned the New York City Board of
Elections of a bomb scare at an early voting site at M555 Central Park East
High School on the corner of Madison Avenue and East 106th Street in East
Harlem on Sunday.

The potential threat interrupted voting. The BOE said staff are waiting for
approval from the NYPD to resume voting.

Once the site re-opens, it will remain open until its scheduled closing time at
5 p.m.

“The NYPD notified us of a bomb scare at 1573 Madison Ave, which is an

early voting site. Emergency protocols were initiated immediately. Staff
along w/ a handful of voters were escorted out safely,” NYC BOE Deputy
Executive Director Vincent Ignizio wrote in a statement posted to Twitter. “We
are awaiting the ‘all clear’ from the NYPD. Once received, we will continue
with voting operations until our scheduled close time of 5pm.”
