Bikes, not bombs
Check out this story about an Ohio University graduate student who has been charged in a bomb scare.
University police say Patrick Hanlin of Three Rivers, Michigan, was the owner of a bicycle that had a sticker on it saying, "this bike is a pipe bomb."
After police discovered the bike chained in front of an on-campus restaurant, they shut down four university buildings, blocked off streets and called in the Columbus fire department bomb squad.
It determined the bike was safe.
