Columbia Police officers were sent to a reported bomb threat at the Courtyard by Marriott on Lemone Industrial Drive at about 10 a.m., Columbia Police Department spokesmanBrian McNeil said. Police cleared the scene a little over an hour later after finding no explosives.

The threat and response led to the hotel's evacuation, and part of Lemone Industrial Boulevard was closed.
