POLICE are investigating a b0mb threat to the theatre where Amanda Abbington was performing in a play.
The chilling threat came just weeks after another one was emailed which said Amanda was going to “di3 on stage.”
Police are investigating a b0mb threat to the theatre where Amanda Abbington was performing in a play
London’s Park Theatre say they are continuing to assist the police with their investigation
A source said last night: “It’s feared the person behind this could be a twisted fan who is targeting Amanda because she made a complaint to the BBC against Giovanni.
“The police were alerted and are taking it very seriously.”
The threats were made while the actress performed in the play When It Happens To You at London’s Park Theatre.
The first email was received in early August, and the police immediately launched an investigation after Amanda reported it, as revealed by The Sun on Sunday.
Then – two weeks ago – another email was sent, this time warning the theatre would be b0mbed due to its links with Amanda.
It’s believed the threats were sent by the same person and cops are understood to be close to tracing the computer it was sent from.
Despite the b0mb threat, Amanda continued to perform in the play – which ended it runs last week.
Confirming they had reported the b0mb attack to the Met Police, Jez Bond, the artistic director of the Park Theatre, said: “We contacted police after a second threat was made and we are continuing to assist the police in this investigation.
