An Indiana University student was arrested on a charge of terroristic mischief after police discovered a suspicious package on campus Thursday night.
Police say an IU employee reported seeing the package outside the Student Services office just before 8:30 p.m. Officers found a sealed box on the sidewalk with the phrase "Call the Bomb Squad" written on top.
Officers established a perimeter and called in the Indiana State Police Explosive Ordinance Disposal Team for help. Police determined the box didn't contain a bomb.
The contents of the box and a label helped police identify Daven Patton as a potential suspect. They obtained a search warrant to enter the Patton's residence and found more evidence linking him to the crime.
