Media outlets in southern Missouri report that two Walmarts in Christian County have been evacuated due to bomb threats. Those stores are in Nixa and Ozark. Other media outlets are reporting the Walmart in Jefferson City was evacuated as well as the Walmart in St. Peters, near St. Louis. Just before 10 p.m., police confirmed that the Walmart in Piedmont also received a threat.
At this time, it is unknown if police are investigating the threats as being connected.
In a statement, Walmart officials said they are working with authorities and apologized for the inconvenience to customers. Company officials said they were grateful no one was hurt.

Pulled off hwy 401 to grab a coffee. The coffee shop parking lot was shared by a Walmart and other stores. The Walmart employees were in the parking lot, lights were out and cops in front. It was about 8:30pm best I can remember. Fuel for the fire.
Cheers
