ROCHESTER, Mich. — Three bombs exploded on the Oakland University campus, leading school officials to cancel classes Thursday while police investigated. No injuries were reported and no threats were received before Wednesday’s explosions, authorities said.
No suspects or motives were known, said Jim Llewellyn, spokesman for the 12,000-student school about 30 miles north of Detroit. He said that the university would remain closed today while the investigation continued.
