This is a photo of Juneau International Airport. (Clarise Larson / Juneau Empire File) Heightened presence of officers at Juneau airport planned Friday. An emailed bomb threat that targeted unspecific airports in Alaska does not appear to be credible, according to Juneau Police Department Lt. Krag Campbell. 'We've had communications with the FBI office and it sounds like it's believed to be a hoax,' he said Friday at about 4 p.m. The email was originally received on Thursday as spam, Campbell said.
