Nowadays everyone is walking on egg shells, especially on college campuses. This prank caused a mass evacuation at the University of Central Florida.
Via the Click Orlando:
“In what was believed to be a prank, a man stood up and threw powder in a classroom at the University of Central Florida Wednesday morning, prompting a search on campus.
UCF police said shortly after 11 a.m. that they were looking for a man described as 6 feet 2 inches tall and wearing a red-and-white LeBron James Miami Heat jersey in connection with a suspicious incident”
Witnesses say the suspect is wearing this jersey. He is described as a 6'2, white male with blonde hair.

Police said there was no imminent threat but students and staff members were asked to avoid the area. WTF. With all that’s going on in the world today, a prank like that just isn’t funny. I immediately thought Anthrax. All fun and games until the building gets evacuated.
