FAMU President Frederick Humphries, whose office is on Lee's Hall fourth floor, was in hte building when the deviccce went off.

"It was like a POOF" said Humphries.  "It didn't do any damage, it wasn't even as powerful as a firecracker."

Someone called television station WTXL in Tallahassee and warned that he had just put "a bomb" in the building.

Niether the police Nor the FBI would say whether anyone had been arrested.  Simply calling in a bomb threat  could be a felony, regardless of what the device was the FBI said.
