Dear Campus Community, 

Early this morning, 08/15/2023, Campus Security was alerted by Shoreline Police that a suspect was in possession of stolen keys to Bldg. 7000 Campus Living was considered armed and dangerous, and possibly headed to campus. As Campus Security arrived at Bldg. 7000 Campus Living, they received a call stating that the caller believed the suspect was in the building. The suspect was then seen exiting the building and leaving campus. Campus Security immediately notified Shoreline Police who responded. Campus Security then set up and maintained constant observation of Bldg. 7000 Campus Living to ensure that the suspect did not attempt to return. 

A short time later, Shoreline Police updated Campus Security, stating that the suspect was believed to be in the vicinity of N 160^th Street and Aurora Avenue N and that a search was underway. Campus Security maintained their position around Bldg. 7000 Campus Living until Shoreline Police stated that the suspect was confirmed to have fled the city. Shoreline Police also confirmed that the keys to Bldg. 7000 Campus Living had been recovered and returned to the owner. Out of an abundance of caution, Campus Security maintained a constant presence at Bldg. 7000 Campus Living until 5:00 AM. 

I’d like to take this opportunity to thank Campus Security for their prompt response to this incident, and their continued dedication to protecting and serving our campus.
