Two colleges in Springfield, Ohio, close after receiving threats linked to false claims about Haitian immigrants

Two colleges in Springfield, Ohio, have moved to virtual learning after receiving separate threats of a bombing and a potential shooting to their campuses over the weekend.

The closures come amid ongoing fallout from baseless allegations former President Donald Trump made during the second presidential debate that Haitian immigrants in the city are stealing and eating local pets.

Classes at Wittenberg University will be held remotely Monday while campus police and local law enforcement continue to assess emailed threats that targeted “members of the Haitian community,” the university said in a statement.

Nearby Clark State College announced its campuses will be closed this week and classes will be held virtually after the school also received emailed threats. Officials at both schools said they were taking the measures “out of an abundance of caution.”

Why Ohio? Shouldn't the states with much larger Haitian populations have more reports if this was actually happening.
