Auburn Hoax: Moms Panic, Police Flex, Library Drama 101
On August 27th at precisely 6:06 p.m. ET (perfect Target arrival time), an AU Alert shook a mom's worldâ'Heavy police presence at RBD Library,' it warned. Her daughter Sophie, a 22-year-old Auburn University student, was caught in a puzzle of YikYak rumors and SWAT-team-walking backpacks that seemed straight out of an action movie. The mom, 900 miles away but emotionally in the chaos, debated the invisible parenting handbook for shooting hoaxes while sitting frozen in a car for 45 minutesâshe finally got the 'ALL CLEAR' text at 6:52 p.m., earning major mom points for calm in uncanny times. Spoiler: no threats, just tactical cosplay in the library.
