[Texascavers] Fwd: Suspicious Pakages in Caves

2014-02-12 Thread Justin Leigh Shaw
This just came from a senior geologist with the City of Austin. I'm not
sure of the imeptus, but I thought I'd pass it on.

Subject: Suspicious Pakages in Caves

All,

I've been advised that there is an individual that may have placed
explosives in caves or sinkholes in southern Travis or northern Hays
Counties. If someone sees a suspicious object/package/box in a cave or
sinkhole, DO NOT TOUCH OR DISTURB IT. Quickly move away and immediately
call 911. No joke!

Please pass this on to those you know in the caving community.

Thx,

dj
