The Rolla Terror Hoax

It was just a hoax. But it looked scarily real for awhile outside the Civil Engineering building at the University of Missouri Rolla.

Watch my KY3 News @ 10 report HERE.

A 22-year-old international graduate student is behind bars after making terrorist threats, claiming he had a bomb and a letter laced with anthrax.

Authorities have determined there was no bomb and that the white substance was powdered sugar.

But as the Rolla Chief of Police put it, "it was a good test."

A coincidence that the Governor received the state's 2006 homeland security report on the same day?

Weird.
