Brisbane bomb scare

Posted on by
An anonymously phoned in bomb threat will stop all bus and train services in Brisbane for the second time today.
BUS, train and ferry services in Brisbane were stopped this morning and passengers evacuated after an anonymous caller made threats against the city’s public transport network. Queensland Premier Peter Beattie said this afternoon that the threat would cause all bus and train services in Brisbane to be suspended again between 4.45pm and 5.15pm (AEST) this afternoon.
Mr Beattie said the Government was being “over-cautious” about the threatening phone calls.

    i think that most people would rather the bus train and ferry
    services be shut down than all the people that catch the public service
    to be in danger of being hurt or even killed

    Of course you are right Kate. I see they have someone in the docks for the crime. I doubt they will be able to get him to pay for the huge costs but in todays climate they had to stop the transport system. Any whingers should read the news more.
