Code Orange In Your Daily Life, pt. 2
...or was that Code Red?

Bj recently related the tale of a "suspicious package" at the YMCA, the Y's subsequent evacuation, and the lack of media coverage. Tonight, Dan called me to say there had been a bomb threat at Mall at Millenia that turned out to be more than a threat. The Mall locked its doors (effectively keeping those inside, inside, and vice versa) during the threat, up until the device (found in the foodcourt) was exploded outside in one of those special bomb-exploding tanks. Some stores closed for the remainder of the day, but Dan's store remained open. He says there was another threat at Mears Transportation somewhere, but how he knows that, I couldn't say. He also said that whomever called in the threat to Orlando police, called from a home phone.

As of right now, I can not find any corroborating media coverage of these events.
