A Maryland district courthouse closed early Friday, requiring a number of hearings to be rescheduled, after a bedbug was found in a file room.
An emergency inspection will be conducted over the weekend at the Towson building by a team including dogs trained to sniff out the pesky insects, reports the Baltimore Sun.
“We are reacting in a way that really is in an abundance of caution,” a spokeswoman for the court system told the newspaper. “We only found one. We would encourage people not to be alarmed, but just to be aware.”
