INDIANAPOLIS -- The 8040 Clearvista Professional Building on the North Campus of Community North Hospital was evacuated because of a bomb threat Thursday evening. 

The evacuation was ordered at the building "per protocol," according to IMPD public information officer.

According to Community Health Net the IMPD bomb squad was called in to complete a sweep of the building. 

No device has been located. 

The Professional Building houses the doctor's offices and a surgery center. The hospital says the offices were evacuated but the surgery center was not.
