Threats Rattle Schools in 10 States
Apr 18, 12:03 AM (ET) AUSTIN, Texas (AP) - Campus threats forced lock-downs and evacuations at universities, high schools and middle schools in at least 10 states on Tuesday, a day after a Virginia Tech student's shooting rampage killed 33 people. Threats in Louisiana, Montana and Washington state directly mentioned the massacre in Virginia, while others were reports of suspicious activity in Texas, Arizona, Oklahoma, Tennessee, North Dakota, South Dakota and Michigan. In Louisiana, parents picked up hundreds of students from Bogalusa's high school and middle school amid reports that a man had been arrested Tuesday morning for threatening a mass killing in a note that alluded to the murders at Virginia Tech. Schools Superintendent Jerry Payne said both schools were locked down and police arrested a 53-year-old man who allegedly made the threat in a note he gave to a student headed to the private Bowling Green School in Franklinton. Both towns are in southeastern Louisiana. Our humble little University was also mentioned in the article. As mention in a similar thread, I hope this does not set off other psychopathic predators to copy-cat this successful cry for attention.
April has many "Anniversary" dates which, for some, are good days to die and take out many others in the process. All in the name of a "Cause".
