EGCC campuses close after threat
STEUBENVILLE Eastern Gateway Community College officials said they closed all of the school’s buildings on the Steubenville and Youngstown campuses on Tuesday and said they will be closed today.
“Between 1 p.m. and 1:30 p.m. (Tuesday), Eastern Gateway received a phone call that included a general threat of violent action on an Eastern Gateway campus. The college’s security team immediately engaged law enforcement in Steubenville and Youngstown, and, out of an abundance of caution, evacuated and closed all facilities associated with the college,” Eastern Gateway President Michael Geoghegan said in a statement Tuesday afternoon.
