Bomb threats that led to the evacuations of four Harvard University campus buildings this week were made by a student trying to get out of taking a final exam, federal prosecutors said Tuesday.
聯邦檢察官周二稱，哈佛大學因受到爆炸威脅緊急疏散了四所建筑里的人群，而發出爆炸威脅的是一名企圖逃避期末考試的哈佛本校學生。
The student, 20-year-old Eldo Kim, sent emails saying bombs had been placed around campus to Harvard police, two university officials and the president of the Harvard Crimson newspaper, according to a criminal complaint filed by the U.S. attorney's office.
根據美國檢察官辦公室起草的公訴文件所述，這名發出爆炸威脅的學生名叫艾爾多·金姆，現年20歲，他曾通過郵件向哈佛校警、兩名校方官員和哈佛校報主席發出威脅，稱其在校園里放置了炸彈。
The messages said shrapnel bombs would go off soon in two of four buildings, including one where prosecutors say Kim was supposed to take an exam at 9 a.m. Monday. The buildings, on Harvard's campus, just outside Boston, were shut down for hours before investigators determined there were no explosives.
該爆炸威脅稱在四所教學樓中的兩所內安放了彈片炸彈，即將爆炸。檢察官稱金姆原本應在上午9點在受到爆炸威脅的一棟建筑物內參加考試。受到爆炸威脅的建筑在波士頓城外的哈佛校區里，校方將這四棟建筑物關閉了數小時，調查人員后發現建筑物內并沒有放置炸彈。
Kim is to make an initial court appearance Wednesday. It was unknown if he had an attorney.
金姆在周三首次出席法庭審訊。至于他是否聘請了律師尚無消息。
The maximum penalties for a bomb hoax are five years in prison and a $250,000 fine, prosecutors said.
公訴人表示，一旦炸彈威脅罪名成立，他將面臨最多5年監禁和25萬美元罰款。
Investigators from several agencies searched the campus buildings for hours before determining there were no explosives. One of the buildings was a freshman dormitory; classes are held in the other three.
來自多個部門的調查人員對哈佛校園進行了數小時之久的搜查，后斷定沒有發現炸彈。受到爆炸威脅的四棟建筑物中有一棟是新生宿舍，另三棟是教學樓。
Harvard said in a statement it was "saddened" by the allegations in the federal complaint but would have no further comment on the ongoing criminal investigation.
對聯邦起訴書中的控訴詞，哈佛校方表示十分“惋惜”，但對于即將開始的刑事調查，哈佛校方未做任何評論。
