Kentucky authorities cleared the Diocese of Covington building of all threats Wednesday evening after receiving a report of a suspicious package a few hours earlier.

A 911 caller said the package arrived by mail. It was evacuated at about 4:30 p.m., a Kenton County dispatcher said.

A different dispatcher told The Enquirer that three packages were reported to authorities throughout the day. Covington Police Officer Josh Haggard said at about 7 p.m. that several packages were received throughout the day, but one in particular sparked the law enforcement response. It was ultimately determined not to be a threat.

Covington police and fire departments were on scene, as were officials in FBI attire. A vehicle marked as a Cincinnati Hazardous Devices Unit also responded.

The investigation came days after an incident in Washington, D.C., involving Covington Catholic High School students, participants in an Indigenous Peoples March and members of the Black Hebrew Israelites, a hate group. Videos of the incident sparked a national debate about who was to blame for the tense encounter.
