Saw a late report from the website of a Richmond newspaper; apparently, the kids who made the report are participating in some sort of academic camp at VA Tech, and campus police deemed their information credible. Still, you raise a good point. In this age of Facebook, Twitter, etc., you’d think one of them would have snapped a picture, which would now be all over the web.
Still a pretty good chance this thing turns out to be a hoax..
Yes,and now it has national legs. I just heard it on a national radio network. Crazy.
Also a pretty good chance that it’s real, but misunderstood. Probably just a guy carrying something wrapped up that looked a tiny bit like a gun. “Wrapped up” or “covered” in itself means this is majorly misunderstandable.
