Will Rogers Turnpike, McDonald's Back Open After Bomb Threat

A staple of the Will Rogers Turnpike and Vinita is back open after a bomb scare over the weekend. Investigators said someone called in a bomb threat to the McDonald's in the travel plaza.

Authorities searched the iconic restaurant--which was once the largest McDonald's in the world--but did not find anything. News On 6 was told 1-person was taken in for questioning but was released.

Because of the threat, the Highway Patrol closed down a stretch of the turnpike for a couple of hours, however it is now back open.
