Suspicious Package on Decatur Square Turns Out to Be Cow’s Tongue
Decatur Metro | October 27, 2011UPDATE: Here’s the AJC article on the tongue.
So, I’ve received a couple of inquiries about a lot of police activity around Decatur Square this afternoon. Apparently there was even a rumor that police found an “arm” or something?
Decatur Police Chief Booker tells DM that police responded to reports of a “suspicious package” on the northeast corner of Decatur Square “near a large tree”, but it turned out the package contained “wrapped up and discarded…beef tongue”.
So there you go. Everyone can stop panicking now. No arm or other human appendage was found.
