一个小镇居民为了蹭到免费的无线网络引发了一场炸弹危机。家住Carlise小城三楼的一户居民为了免费使用附近Bosler纪念图书馆的无线网络，在自家窗外放了一个无线路由，结果不慎掉在人行道上，被路人发现，以为是炸弹报告了警察。四小时后，警察的拆弹专家小队确认这个东西无害，经过调查才最终确定这个包裹只是个无线路由。警察中尉表示，这件事不会作为犯罪记录存档。
A resident"s attempt to get free wireless Internet was the cause of a bomb scare in downtown Carlisle late Tuesday, police said this afternoon.
Lt. Michael Dzezinski said an investigation showed that a "suspicious package" that authorities at first feared might be an explosive was in fact a wireless router in a container wrapped in tape with its antenna sticking out.
The device was found in the ground in the 100 block of West High Street around 6:30 p.m. Police closed nearby Dickinson Avenue where a state police explosives expert squad neutralized it four hours later.
Dzezinski said it was determined that a resident of a third-floor apartment had placed the router, wrapped to make it weatherproof, on a windowsill in an attempt to pick up free wireless Internet service from the nearby Bosler Memorial Library.
The device fell off the windowsill onto the sidewalk below where a witness found it and alerted police, he said. No criminal charges will be filed, Dzezinski said.
