Trashed Backpack Sets Off Bomb Scare

Police in Pittsburgh said a bomb scare was set off by a harmless backpack left behind by a homeless man who pulled it from the trash. The bomb squad was called in August 18th to investigate a pink backpack hanging from a sign outside The Pennsylvanian building. Several downtown streets were closed amid rush hour traffic until George Morris, 62, approached officers and told them he had taken the backpack from a trash can and left it on the sign in case anyone wanted it or its contents – a doll and some business cards. Officers cited Morris for disorderly conduct.
