Updated 1:15 p.m. - The package has been determined to contain party supplies, Sheriff's officials have told ECM news partner 10 News.  Sheriff's representative Jan Caldwell says it is too early to determine if this is related to the pipe bomb that injured Connie Hoagland in Rancho San Diego or the pipe bomb left in the family's Rolando neighborhood earlier this month.

September 27, 2010 (Rancho San Diego) - Steele Canyon High School has been placed in lockdown due to a suspicious package delivered this morning, ECM has learned.  The package was delivered via Federal Express.  According to 10 News and an ECM source close to the investigation, the package was addressed to a child of Connie Hoagland, the woman injured in last week's pipe bomb explosion outside a Rancho San Diego daycare center where she worked. 

Highway 94 in the vicinity of the school has also been shut down as bomb squad officials examine the package; officials have also asked that air space be cleared over the school.

alarming!

Situations such as these cruel crimes are made of ruthless people who only think about themselves. They are the people who only think much on how to make their life better even if it would mean destroying life of others. Receiving a mail like that is just same with receiving spam emails in your e-mail accounts. People set up viruses to ruin other people's computer not knowing how big the impact is to the recipient.
