Combination.

C'mon folks, this had nothing at all to do with Pistole or the TSA .
If a bomb threat is phoned in you don't ignore it completely. Yes, it's most likely a hoax but combined with an apparently abandoned bag evacuation seems prudent to me.

Unless as per incidents in the past, the evacuation caused everyone to move back toward the suspect bag, in which case .

An unattended bag is one of the few things I will report. Put it down to living in London 1979-82.
