UMBC Police Department                           410-455-5555

The University has received notification originating through the Maryland
Coordination and Analysis Center that a device went off in the mailroom at
the Jeffrey Building at 16 Francis St in Annapolis.  A sulfur smell was
present and building was evacuated.

A second device went off at MDOT headquarters in Linthicum.  No additional
information on the two incidents is available for release at this time.

This message is being sent to make all members of the community aware of
the two events however there is no indication at this time that the
University is a target of similar packages.  The police department does
want to take this opportunity to remind all mail recipients that they
should carefully examine any mail received. Questions to consider when
evaluating packages received are:

1.      Was the package expected?
2.      Is the sender known to the receiving person/office.  In other
words is the package from a known or source?
3.      Is there anything about the exterior of the package that appears
strange or suspicious?

If you receive a package and are concerned with its validity or source,
you can contact the UMBC police who will respond and help assess the
situation.

WBAL radio is reporting a news story on these incidents that can be viewed
at http://www.wbal.com/

Information Alerts are posted to notify UMBC community members of
situations that could affect their safety, with the hope that the
community members will take the necessary precautions to prevent
themselves from becoming victims of crime. Personal safety practices and
knowledge are your best defense against crime.

This alert has been approved by Chief of Police Mark Sparks and is
intended to promote campus security and comply with the Jeanne Clery
Disclosure of Campus Security Police and Campus Crime Statistics Act of
1990. ]]> January 6, 2011 UMBC Police Department                           410-455-5555 The University has received notification originating through the Maryland Coordination and Analysis Center that a... https://dev.my.umbc.edu/api/v0/pixel/news/4251/guest@my.umbc.edu/b256bbe77353e5bd3ba657bd9c707adf/api/pixel community-news-and-opinion myUMBC Archive https://dev.my.umbc.edu/groups/archive https://assets1-dev.my.umbc.edu/system/shared/avatars/groups/000/001/074/4adef779a21771e0a5619a2157c8c22a/xsmall.png?1434668612 https://assets2-dev.my.umbc.edu/system/shared/avatars/groups/000/001/074/4adef779a21771e0a5619a2157c8c22a/original.png?1434668612 https://assets2-dev.my.umbc.edu/system/shared/avatars/groups/000/001/074/4adef779a21771e0a5619a2157c8c22a/xxlarge.png?1434668612 https://assets4-dev.my.umbc.edu/system/shared/avatars/groups/000/001/074/4adef779a21771e0a5619a2157c8c22a/xlarge.png?1434668612 https://assets1-dev.my.umbc.edu/system/shared/avatars/groups/000/001/074/4adef779a21771e0a5619a2157c8c22a/large.png?1434668612 https://assets2-dev.my.umbc.edu/system/shared/avatars/groups/000/001/074/4adef779a21771e0a5619a2157c8c22a/medium.png?1434668612 https://assets4-dev.my.umbc.edu/system/shared/avatars/groups/000/001/074/4adef779a21771e0a5619a2157c8c22a/small.png?1434668612 https://assets1-dev.my.umbc.edu/system/shared/avatars/groups/000/001/074/4adef779a21771e0a5619a2157c8c22a/xsmall.png?1434668612 https://assets3-dev.my.umbc.edu/system/shared/avatars/groups/000/001/074/4adef779a21771e0a5619a2157c8c22a/xxsmall.png?1434668612 Gavin St. Ours 3 1 true Thu, 06 Jan 2011 16:46:43 -0500
