The chalk toss is no longer a main part of LeBron James’ pregame routine, but a student at UCF randomly decided to pay tribute to The King by throwing powder inside a business administration classroom.
UCF Police announced on Twitter they were evacuating the building after the incident:
#UCFAlert: Police are searching for a white male, 6'2, wearing a red and white basketball jersey.
BA1 is evacuated. Please avoid area.

BA1 Update: The suspect stood up in a class that he is not believed to be a student in, and threw powder in the air.
Out of an abundance of caution, we evacuated the classroom and the building while we investigate.

Now the important question: What LeBron jersey was the student wearing? That would be a throwback No. 6 Heat jersey, which makes sense given the school.
Witnesses say the suspect is wearing this jersey. He is described as a 6'2, white male with blonde hair.

While the evacuation must have been a pain in the ass for faculty, staff, and police, the good news is that LeBron fan didn’t shower the classroom with cocaine or something hazardous — it was just baby powder:
The spilled powder is a match for powdered baby formula. https://t.co/zrMmlGDqZP
