There were some tense moments on the Florida State University campus at lunch Thursday afternoon.
The bomb squad was called out after a maintenance worker walked by a car in a parking garage and saw a briefcase with the word “a-bomb” scrawled across it.
F-S-U used its campus wide alerting system. Text messages had the students and employees on alert for a brief period until police gave the all clear.
Lt. Jason Trumbower of the F-S-U Police Department says no explosives were found. They later determined the briefcase belonged to a student.
"It belonged to a 17 year old student here locally. The brief case just a few minutes ago was found to be empty, nothing inside. Apparently the kids name, nickname was A-bomb and that was found on the suitcase."
Anywhere else I would have been, "Yeah, right." But since it happened in Florida...what else is new?
