Police across Florida are searching for a semi after receiving a tip that the vehicle may be on its way to Central Florida packed with explosives, Local 6 News has learned.
Authorities said a man called a crisis center in Georgia and said the tractor-trailer is traveling to Orlando.
He told a worker that it is a brown 18-wheeler with an eagle on its side, the report said.
Officers confirmed the threat but were trying to determine how credible it was late Saturday.
Anyone with information on the truck is urged to call Crimeline at 800-423-TIPS.
