I would like to state for the record that I left Minneapolis on Sunday and never got near Princeton!

I hope they arrest whomever did this quickly. These bombings and fakes are not good for the mental status of people all over.

FBI agents and bomb squads in Minnesota are hunting for explosives -- or evidence of a hoax -- at a high school and two other locations where suspicious packages were planted early Wednesday.

An official told FOX News that the devices found near the school, a post office and a public utility center about 6:30 a.m. "look like" bombs. But authorities in Princeton, Minn., located about 50 miles north of Minneapolis, were trying to determine Wednesday whether they were real or part of an elaborate ruse.

FBI agents were on-scene at the three locations, a law enforcement official told FOX.

The source said he was not aware of any threats that had been called in or made by whoever planted the packages.

Traffic in the area was blocked and diverted. Princeton High School and elementary school students were evacuated, and later all students from the district were sent home.

About Me

Belisarius

This is my place to vent a little and get things off my chest. I am a retired Marine who has interests in WMDs. Since WMD events are, thankfully, few in number, I spend a lot of time reading about people likely to use them. This takes me on some interesting tangents. I travel alot in my post retirement career and do not always have time to comment as I post articles. Give me a day or two to catch up if I skip comments, please.
