A Cellcom building in Lawrence was evacuated Sunday afternoon after a bomb threat was called in, police said.

Just after 3:30 p.m. on September 17, a voicemail threat was left by a robotic-sounding voice, the Hobart-Lawrence Police Department said.

20 people were evacuated from the building at 1580 Mid Valley Drive. A K-9 unit was brought in to search. 

No bomb was found, officers said.

Police are now tracing the call.
