Fear not: It’s only a test.
From 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tuesday through Thursday, Penn State police will be conducting an emergency-response exercise in and around the Business Building, near the intersection of Park Avenue and Shortlidge Road.
‘Members of the community should not be alarmed by the police activity and simulated security exercises in the area,’ the university wrote in a prepared statement. ‘The effort is being filmed by Penn State Public Broadcasting for future training purposes.’
