    Wrapped Bible shuts GCC campus down
    November 11, 2010

    DEPTFORD - The "Good Book" shut down Gloucester County College on
    Wednesday afternoon.


    Officers were called to the Tanyard Road campus after school security
    officials spotted a suspicious package, said Deptford Police Detective
    Sgt. George Johnson. The brown-paper-wrapped package with Armenian
    text had arrived at the school earlier in the week addressed to a
    department head.

    The school was evacuated as the Camden County Sheriff's Department's
    Bomb Unit examined the item. At 2 p.m. a portable X-ray machine
    revealed the package's contents -- a Bible.

    Johnson said the man who sent the package, identified only as a Camden
    County resident, didn't intend to cause an alarm.
    Classes will resume today.
