Threatening voicemail left for Seattle mayor, man arrested

SEATTLE (AP) — Police say a suburban Seattle man has been arrested in connection with a voicemail threatening Seattle’s Mayor Jenny Durkan. Seattle police said detectives were told on Tuesday that a man had left a voicemail that morning at the mayor’s office saying he wanted to kill her. Police say they identified the caller and determined the call came from a home in Auburn. Police say officers arrested a 43-year-old man at the home and booked him in to King County jail for investigation of telephone harassment. A Seattle firefighter was arrested in February and accused of emailing threats to City Councilmember Kshama Sawant.
