“Trump = Bomb” prompts evacuation at Georgian Court University

lpd crime scene tlsThe words “Trump = Bomb” prompted an evacuation at the Georgian Court University today, police say.

“At approximately 10:52 am, we we alerted that someone had written the words “Trump = Bomb” in a bathroom located in the Maria Hall dormitory on the Georgian Court University campus,” Detective Liutenant Greg Staffordsmith said.

As a result numerous patrol and detective personnel responded to the scene and assisted campus security with the evacuation of the hall. K-9 units from the Ocean County Sheriff’s Department then conducted a full sweep and determined that the building was safe.

“The students were displaced for less than two hours and allowed to return to their rooms at approximately 12:50 this afternoon,” Staffordsmith said.

“At this time the investigation is on going to determine who authored the perceived threat which caused a false public alarm.”

Anyone with information is urged to contact Det. Michael Mooney at 732-363-0200 ext. 5341.

This is a college,not highschool. For people that never stepped foot on a college campus, it is understandable you would not know that students get to choice this own schedule (helps you after college with time management)
