Wave of threatening phone calls shut Jewish community centers, including one in Newton

Ha'aretz reports on the last wave of what turned out to be hoax calls to Jewish centers across the country, including the Jewish Community Center of Greater Boston in Newton.

At 1:20 p.m., Sean Roche reported on the all clear:

Lot is full. Building is bustling. Essential and undaunted.

Singular not plural, I'm sure it was a single individual. A genuinely concerted effort should really be made.

It's happening all over the place, including England. Oh, ya, there's a concerted effort to trace the calls, I assume. The bombs are hoaxes, fortunately, but the calls are not. Could be coming from anywhere, but it's been going on for a while now. Sounds like more than one individual.
