Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese was evacuated Tuesday from his official residence over a safety concern.
Australian Federal Police (AFP) said they were summoned to The Lodge in Canberra following a threat and that Albanese was moved to another secure site, according to Sky News.
"About 6pm today, the AFP responded to an alleged security incident within the Australian Capital Territory," police reportedly said in a statement. "A thorough search of a protection establishment was undertaken and nothing suspicious was located."
"There is no current threat to the community or public safety. Further information will be provided at an appropriate time," they added.
