Police search for suspect in Webb Building threats

DENVER - Police are searching for a woman who was seen faxing a threat to bomb two Denver city office buildings.

On September 26, the city's public safety recruitment office received an angry and profane message on its fax machine. The author claimed to have planted napalm and liquid explosives in the Wellington Webb Office Building and in the offices across the street at 303 West Colfax, police said.

Denver Police scrambled to investigate and to secure the buildings.



"The note was very hateful," said Denver Police Department spokesman Sonny Jackson. "The wording was pretty scary. We had to take it seriously."

Jackson said police believe the author is a paroled criminal, because the note complained about court-ordered urine tests.

"I fight for the (expletive) country, come home and am treated like garbage," wrote the author. "I can't find a decent job for a white man."

However, the person who sent the fax appears to be a black woman, not a white man, authorities said.

Police traced the fax to a copy shop in downtown Denver, where a security camera caught the woman's image as she worked at a fax machine.

Police said they are not sure if the woman wrote the threatening note, but she probably knows who did.
