WEST LAFAYETTE,
Ind. (AP) - A bomb squad has blown up a suspicious package that prompted
evacuations on the main Purdue University campus in West Lafayette.
WLFI-TV reports the
package was found Wednesday morning placed against a corner of Stewart
Center, a building with meeting rooms near the Purdue Memorial Union. Both
Stewart Center and the union were evacuated during the scare.
Purdue police say
the package was wrapped with a variety of things with wiring coming out of
it. After an examination of the package including X-rays, the bomb squad
robot blew up the package. Officers say the package contained a flashlight,
a reflective belt and other items.
No injuries were
reported.
