Update 3:15 PM: Officers completed a thorough search of the complex and have not found any indications the threat was credible. Police will continue to investigate the case and work to identify the person who left the threatening note.
Seattle police are investigating after staff at Amazon.com’s South Lake Union headquarters found a threatening note on the company’s campus early this morning.
Building security contacted Seattle police around 10:30 AM after staff found a note inside a bathroom in the Amazon complex, in the 400 block of Terry Avenue N.
Out of an abundance of caution, the Seattle Police Department Arson/Bomb Squad and explosive detection dog teams have deployed to the complex to assist in the investigation. Employees have evacuated from the complex as police and Amazon.com security search the area.
