Without giving too many details, I work in the area. The alert went out right as I was a block away. I was able to get into the parking garage, but by time I parked there were a dozen cop cars with cops up and down the street with their rifles out and workers being evacuated in formation. Then we got a canceled alert at the same time we got another shelter in place alert. I'm glad it was a false alarm, but if it would have been real that could have been bad news for people in the area. I hope they use this as a catalyst to improve emergency alerts.
