A bomb alert was made in Bucharest today for a building near the Aurel Vlaicu metro station, the 112 emergency service being called by an unknown man who said that a bomb had been placed in one of the buildings in that area .
After investigating the bomb alert and identifying the man who made it, he being the guard of the building for which the alert was given, the police announced that the phone number from which the 112 service was called was also used to register on Facebook, he more likely on Facebook Messenger.
Yes, you read that right, the bomb alert in Bucharest was made by a man who used a prepaid card with a phone number also used to connect to Facebook, and from here draw whatever conclusion you want regarding the level of intelligence that such a person has.
Detained and questioned by the police, the man stated that the bomb alert was just a joke, but his joke led to the evacuation of several hundred people from inside the building and the involvement of a large number of firefighters, policemen and pyrotechnicians who arrived at the front the place.
We have a possible suspect, a man suspected of having called 112, who is currently being interviewed by the police. Colleagues from the Pyrotechnic Service have finished checking the basement. There are 26 floors to check, it will be a long intervention. Traffic in the area was diverted to avoid any danger
Despite the fact that the bomb alert seems to be false, the pyrotechnicians search the building to make sure that there is no explosive device inside, and the chances of a bomb existing in that building are very small, as expected.
Leaving aside the joke with the bomb alert, it is interesting how quickly the connection was made between a phone number and a Facebook account in the conditions where theoretically things should have been a bit more complicated to discover in such a short period of time of time.
For now, there are no additional details regarding the information regarding the connection between the phone number from which the bomb alert was made and the Facebook account, but clarifications will probably come.
