They followed the guy to campus, then arrested him. First they sent in a robot, then they sent in a guy in a blast suit. All to remove an empty metal shell. My office is right above this, so I was able to get lots of photos: http://err.cylab.cmu.edu/~serge/cmu-bomb/ serge -- /* Serge Egelman PhD Candidate Vice President for External Affairs, Graduate Student Assembly Carnegie Mellon University Legislative Concerns Chair National Association of Graduate-Professional Students */ ------------------------------------------- Archives: http://v2.listbox.com/member/archive/247/=now RSS Feed: http://v2.listbox.com/member/archive/rss/247/ Powered by Listbox: http://www.listbox.com
