"See Something, Say Something". Texas Copycats Have Local Officials Concerned

Tulsa Police

The Texas bombings have officials here concerned about copy-cat explosive packages. Bombs have exploded in Austin and San Antonio causing deaths and injuries.

Tulsa Bomb Squad Sergeant Jacob Thompson says if a package, you are NOT expecting, shows up on your porch use caution. He says there are things to look for before you touch it.

  • Be sure the package has a correct mailing label.
  • It has been shipped from a legitimate company.
  • The box does not appear to be tampered with or damaged.
  • Is packaged with packing tape.
  • There is no powder residue on the box.

He says should you see any of those things, call police and have the package checked out.
