University of Alabama officials say a second social media threat of violence was made against the campus, this one less than 24 hours after a dorm was placed on lockdown because of a threat.
The second threat was made around 10:30 a.m.
“This is not a new post. It is 12 hours old,” UA spokeswoman Cathy Andreen said in a statement. “UAPD continues to aggressively investigate the situation. UA is prepared to respond to any situation that impacts the campus.”

Screenshots of a purported threat spread on social media Monday night, showing a threat against the university’s Bryce Lawn community made by an “Arthur Pendragon,” the same name students said the first threat came from.

The first threat prompted the Sunday night lockdown of Tutwiler Hall, and also set off a large number of rumors that campus police said Monday were false.
