KFOR troops and fire engines also arrived on the scene. Woman arrested for Prizren bomb threats KFOR members and a bomb disposal team searched both buildings, but found nothing suspicious. Only then did they manage to trace the phone call back to a 33-year-old woman who said that she had been “appalled that neither establishment had helped her address her social problems, more precisely, hadn’t built her a house.“ A local TV reporter said that she had left a handbag containing a bottle of perfume which had exploded because of the heat in the building, causing added confusion and leading to a 3-hour traffic stoppage in the center of town. This is the first time that the Prizren municipal building, which houses the municipal president and two vice-presidents, has received a hoax tip-off, having been a common occurrence at the municipality’s old premises.
