Bomb threat closes Champlain border crossing

CHAMPLAIN, N.Y. - There was a bomb scare at a busy border crossing in our region. Travelers were tied up for hours.

Canadian authorities aren't releasing many details about what happened at this point, but the U.S. Border Patrol says it's back open for now which is a relief for travelers.

"It's a cluster," said Gary Chipman, trucker.

Chipman's day came to a screeching halt just shy of the border in Champlain, New York. He and others couldn't get through.

"I was coming down the 87 from Middletown, Delaware, when I got a phone call from my wife saying the border's closed, they had a bomb scare," said Chipman.
