Wrapped Bible shuts GCC campus down
November 11, 2010
DEPTFORD – The “Good Book” shut down Gloucester County College on
Wednesday afternoon.
Officers were called to the Tanyard Road campus after school security
officials spotted a suspicious package, said Deptford Police Detective
Sgt. George Johnson. The brown-paper-wrapped package with Armenian
text had arrived at the school earlier in the week addressed to a
department head.
The school was evacuated as the Camden County Sheriff’s Department’s
Bomb Unit examined the item. At 2 p.m. a portable X-ray machine
revealed the package’s contents — a Bible.
Johnson said the man who sent the package, identified only as a Camden
County resident, didn’t intend to cause an alarm.
Classes will resume today.
