BACOLOD City – A bomb threat prompted the suspension of classes yesterday at the Visayan VMA Global College in Barangay Sum-ag.
But the Bacolod City Police Office (BCPO) found out the threat was a hoax, City Administrator John Orola said.
The threat came in the form of a text message from mobile phone number 0916667981 to High School Department principal Arsenia Juanero.
Orola said the VMA head sent him a text message that she received a bomb threat.
The text from the anonymous number read: “May nakapagsabi lang po sa akin na may bomba daw na sasabog sa VMA campus at training Center @ sa yamada building ngayong araw tuod gid ni sa kuno kay kung hindi mapatay tanan nga TAWO! BOOM! Hindi lang ni isa ka tsismis salamat! Ako isa ka ginikanan [sic].”
Senior Superintendent Jack Wanky, officer-in-charge of the BCPO, dispatched a team to verify the threat only to find out it was not true./PN
