Victoria Police are investigating after a bomb threat to a business in the 25 hundred block of Government Street.

They shut down Hillside Avenue between Government Street and John Street and Government Street between Hillside Avenue and Bay Street around 9 a.m. 

K9 police units and the Emergency Response Team also assisted with the investigation. 

The threat turned out to be unfounded and the streets have since been re-opened.

Police are now asking for the public's help in finding a person of interest in their investigation who they think may have made the call.
