Pontotoc County Sheriff Neal Davis said deputies spent much of the day at the Ecru furniture plant looking for a bomb after the threat was left on the company’s voice mail.
Davis said the building was searched by his K-9 unit but no explosive devices was found.
American officials could not be reached for comment.
Ken Pruett, president of the Pontotoc-based Mississippi Furniture Association, said American employees were sent home. The company employs about 1,000 workers.
The incident is still under investigation.
