University of Missouri authorities say they’re investigating threats made via social media, NBC News reported.
The university posted a message to its emergency information Twitter account that campus police was investigating reports, but that there was “no immediate threat.”
The Univeristy of Missouri Police Department said it confirmed a “phoned-in threat” made earlier on Tuesday to the Black Culture Center on campus. Police said the building was locked down, but nothing suspicious was found and no arrests were made, according to NBC News.
The threats come after students protested — prompting Tim Wolfe, University of Missouri president, to resign Monday because of harsh criticism for his response to racial incidents on campus.
