Huff PostAt least a half-dozen historically Black universities in five states and the District of Columbia were responding to bomb threats Monday, with many of them locking down their campuses for a time. Albany State University warned students and faculty on social media that “a bomb threat has been issued to Albany State University’s academic buildings.” School officials at Southern University and A&M College in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, told students to stay in their dormitories and until an all-clear was given. In Florida, Bethune-Cookman University said in a statement that the Daytona Police Department and Volusia County Sheriff’s Office were on campus to investigate a bomb threat there. Delaware State University spokesman Carlos Holmes told local news outlets a bomb threat to that campus was made early Monday morning.
