Bomb Threat Causes Scare at U. of Iowa

The University of Iowa has been on edge all day after officials received an anonymous threat that four pipe bombs had been left on the campus. According to a news release issued this afternoon, university police officers evacuated two buildings after a suspicious package was found. A local bomb squad blew up the package, and no explosives were found in it. People were then allowed to return to the buildings. —Andrew Mytelka
