Earlier today, UCI officials received a viable threat of violence associated with the recent controversy over the display of national flags in the lobby of student government offices. The campus is taking this threat seriously. As a result, the administration canceled tonight’s meeting of the student-government Legislative Council. Student government leaders responsible for convening this meeting support this decision.
While the threat was not specific, the UCI Police Department has increased its security presence and is conducting an investigation. If you have information about this matter, please contact Investigations Lieutenant Joe Reiss at 949-824-2491.
The UCI Police Department is asking the community to report any suspicious activity immediately to the UCI Police Department at 949-824-5223.
In emergency situations or during crimes in progress, dial 9-1-1 from any phone or use an emergency phone available on campus. Emergency phone locations are shown on the campus map available at http://communications.uci.edu//documents/pdf/UCI_14_map_campus.pdf
