SEATTLE — Police have arrested a 26-year-old Seattle University student in connection with bomb threats that led authorities to evacuate three buildings last week.
KOMO-TV reported the buildings were evacuated on Friday after students found a series of threatening notes left in school restrooms.
A bomb squad and campus security searched the buildings but found nothing.
On Saturday, staff at Swedish Hospital’s Cherry Hill facility — which houses Seattle University’s medical training programs — called police after they found a similar threatening note in a women’s restroom.
Seattle police learned that a student was captured on surveillance cameras entering a bathroom shortly after hospital staff found a threatening note.
Police arrested the student on the school’s main campus Monday morning for investigation of felony threats. The student’s name was not released.
