GLASSSBORO – A major strip mall in Glassboro was evacuated for about two hours Saturday afternoon due to a threat.

The Doubletree Shopping Center on Delsea Drive was cleared out around noon “due to an active police investigation,” the Glassboro Police Department said in a Facebook post.

But all stores at the center have now been reopened, police said in an update issued at 2:10 p.m.

Authorities did not specify what prompted the evacuation but classified the severity level as "moderate" and noted there was a "possible threat to life or property."

“NO ACCESS will be allowed into any of the stores in the main building and we ask the public to avoid the area,” police said during the evacuation.

The shopping center includes various shops and restaurants including an ALDI supermarket, the Hops & Grapes liquor store, a Social Security Administration office and a UPS Store.

“No further information available at this time and we apologize for any inconvenience,” police said in the Facebook post.
