Man in custody after allegedly threatening violence in Boulder, police say Blayke Roznowski, Stephanie Butzer
5-6 minutes
BOULDER, Colo. — Evacuations and shelter-in-place orders were lifted in Boulder after a man was taken into custody for allegedly sending an
email that threatened to "attack Boulder outside of the university,"
Boulder police said Tuesday morning.
The suspect was identified by the Boulder Police Department (BPD) on
Tuesday afternoon as Matthew Christopher Harris, 31.
BPD Chief Maris Herold said that on Monday, the suspect sent a
threatening email with a link to an 800-page manifesto that threatened violence, and the information was forwarded to the University of
California Los Angeles (UCLA) Police Department. The manifesto had
thousands of violent references to bombs, killings, death, murder,
shootings, schoolyard massacres and phrases like, "Burn and attack
Boulder outside of the university," she said.
The UCLA PD tracked the person who wrote the email to Boulder and
notified the BPD on Monday evening.
The BPD began an investigation with state and federal partners and
located the suspect within city limits and along the 900 block of Broadway.
At 7:52 a.m., the Boulder Regional SWAT was activated to help with the investigation. SWAT set up a perimeter around the suspect's location and officers started evacuating nearby schools, homes and businesses,
including CU Boulder fraternities and sororities in the area. Police
also issued a shelter-in-place around 9:50 a.m. for 65 homes near the
apartment complex where the suspect was, Herold said. That shelter in
place was lifted at 12:42 p.m., the department said in a tweet. As a
result of the police activity, University Hill Elementary School staff evacuated its students and canceled school for the rest of the day. The
school was fully evacuated by 9 a.m.
Based on the police department's investigation, the suspect had
attempted to buy a handgun in Jefferson County on Nov. 2, but was denied
the purchase, Herold said.
Police applied for a search warrant, which was approved, and officers
and crisis negotiators attempted to make contact with the suspect. They
were able to reach him via phone.
At 11:07 a.m., officers were able to take the suspect into custody.
Detectives searched the apartment, which he lived in, afterward, Herold
said.
"The importance of having collaboration at the federal, state and local
levels was critical to the swift resolution of this incident this
morning," she said. "This incident today is yet another reminder of the
ongoing need for strong relationships with our federal law enforcement
partners to protect the Boulder community."
In a letter sent to students from UCLA, school leaders said they were
greatly relieved to hear that the suspect, who had allegedly made
threats against some members of the UCLA community, was taken into custody.
The statement reads, in part: "The threats made yesterday were
frightening for many of us and caused our community to feel vulnerable
at an already challenging time. We know many Bruins turned to one
another for support. Campus counseling is also available at 310-825-0768
for anyone who needs additional care. These are unsettling times and
your well-being is a top priority, so please do not hesitate to reach
out for help if you need it. ... We offer our deepest thanks to UCPD and
other law enforcement agencies for thoroughly investigating these
threats as soon as we learned of them and for coordinating to locate and
arrest the individual in Colorado. We also want to thank all of you for checking in on those around you. Compassion and care for one another are
the hallmarks of a true community."
UCLA will return to in-person learning on Wednesday.
Boulder County District Attorney Michael Dougherty said that he
recognized Tuesday was scary for Boulder's residents. He thanked the
BPD's work responding quickly to the situation.
"The BPD took these threats and what they read in that manifesto very seriously, and acted immediately," he said. "As the chief indicated,
they learned about that on Jan. 31 — that's yesterday. We have a safe
and peaceful resolution today. And I want to acknowledge that what they
did and how they went about is why there were no injuries and no
casualties associated with this event."
