A short time later, just after 9:00 a.m., this morning, Barrie Police received information regarding a suspicious person in the area of Georgian College. Officers attended the scene and were able to determine that there was no threat to the college or any other location. The person was later located and it was confirmed that there was no threat to public safety.
