A fake bomb scare hit the culture
ministry in Rome Tuesday.
The building was evacuated after a man "with an Italian voice"
phoned in the bomb alert.
Robot dog Saetta and real sniffer dog Olimpia made sure there
was no device on the premises amid a police sweep.
"Just as well", said Minister Gennaro Sangiuliano.
Police pointed out that such hoaxes diverted men and materiel
from real issues.
