多所历史黑人学院和大学因潜在威胁实施封锁

摘要

南部多所历史黑人学院和大学因校园安全潜在威胁,于周四实施封锁或取消课程。

南部多所历史黑人学院和大学(HBCUs)因校园安全潜在威胁,于周四实施封锁或取消课程。受影响的院校包括汉普顿大学、弗吉尼亚州立大学、贝瑟恩库克曼大学和阿拉巴马州立大学,这些学校均报告收到威胁并采取了预防措施。

亚特兰大的斯佩尔曼学院在邻近的克拉克亚特兰大大学收到威胁后发布了就地避难令;该命令当天晚些时候被解除。巴吞鲁日的南方大学暨农业机械学院也实施了封锁,但随后解除,取消了整个周末的所有校园活动和课程。

威胁的具体性质尚未立即披露。联邦调查局(FBI)确认已知悉针对历史黑人学院和大学的“虚假威胁电话”,并表示虽然没有信息表明这些威胁具有可信性,但他们正与执法合作伙伴协作,应对任何出现的威胁。

此次事件发生在2022年针对历史黑人学院和大学的一系列威胁之后,当时至少有57所高校通过各种通信渠道接到炸弹威胁。一名未成年人因制造数十起此类威胁而被控州级罪行。

众议院少数党领袖哈基姆·杰弗里斯谴责近期威胁为“卑鄙”,并敦促司法部调查任何潜在的国内恐怖主义行为,强调必须保护黑人大学生免受针对。
