Series of Bomb Threats Leaves Union County College Officials Frustrated

Cranford, NJ
Union County College has had six bomb threats in four weeks — five at the Cranford campus and one in Plainfield. The school has evacuated an unprecedented five times this month, officials say, most recently on Friday afternoon.

The repeated disruptions, which mirror strings of threats at the universities of Pittsburgh, Delaware and Maine in recent weeks, have led to investigations at the college by the FBI and the Department of Homeland Security. As yet, the callers have not been identified.
