Just Kidding?: New Jersey Accidentally Activates, Sends Nuclear Warnings to Some TVs

LISTEN TO TLR’S LATEST PODCAST:


By Kody Fairfield

Two things happened for sure today in New Jersey. 1) Two counties of people had heart attacks, and 2) Someone lost their job.

On Tuesday, a nuclear power plant warning was sent out in New Jersey by mistake. The two counties Cumberland and Salem were the recipients of the accidental drill and its safe to say that panic may have ensued for a short time.

The message that was sent out said “a civil authority has issued a nuclear power plant warning for the following counties/areas,” reports ABC 4 New York.

Quickly after the warning flashed on television screens, the New Jersey Office of Emergency Management tweeted that the emergency alert was “false.”

WATCH:

The reactions on social media weren’t all too happy.

Some commenters however, threw on their tin foil hats over the incident, claiming it may have been a “test run” to see how the populous would react.
