University of Maryland police are investigating a knotted piece of plastic wrap resembling a noose found in the 7500 block of Route 1, near Fraternity Row.
The wrap was found lying on the ground Tuesday, and reported to university police by two passers-by, according to a statement released to the campus community via email Tuesday night.
The statement made no mention of the wrap's shape. It noted that police were called "out of concern for possible hate-bias," but did not say whether the matter is being investigated as such.
"Out of an abundance of caution, we are looking into this matter and conducting a review of our cameras in the area," the email read.
Students expressed concern about the incident on Twitter, with some alleging that police initially dismissed the wrap as trash.
