Bomb or Biological Threat
Bomb Threats
-
Since most threats are received by telephone – document as
many details as possible, including any Caller ID number displayed.
- Immediately call Campus Police at extension 5911 or at (815) 836-5911 and provide them with as much information as possible from the bomb-threat call. Conduct a quick visual search of your area for any unusual or unfamiliar items. Do not handle, move, or touch suspicious items. Report any findings to Campus Police and await further instruction.
Biological Threats
A biological attack can manifest itself in a number of ways over a long period of time.
-
If you suspect the presence of a biological or chemical agent,
avoid inhalation by covering
your mouth and nose with any
piece of cloth.
-
Distance yourself from the
agent by moving away and utilizing barriers.
- In the event of exposure, immediately contact police at ext. 5911 or (815) 836-5911 or 911.
