KYLE CITY COUNCIL
After the Kyle City Council meeting was cancelled on Tuesday, July 15, Kyle Mayor Travis Mitchell took to social media to post that it was due to a bomb threat received by the Kyle Police Department that was “credible enough for us to recess our meeting.” In that same post, he announced that he will be stepping down from his position as mayor.
“At approximately 6:53 p.m., the department received a call claiming a bomb had been placed beneath a nearby vehicle,” the city of Kyle said in a statement. “The caller also stated they were armed and intended to shoot officers as they arrived. Officers already on site for the meeting immediately began evacuating and securing the building while conducting a thorough search of the premises. No credible threats or suspicious items were found.”
