Evolution Labs at University of Colorado Threatened
On Friday, anonymous threats were sent to the evolutionary biology labs at the University of Colorado at Boulder by email and when workers returned to their labs on Monday morning they found threatening messages slipped under their doors. The threats mention a group affiliated with creationism, but police did not release the name of the group as the matter is still under investigation. Currently, the University of Colorado police are not providing further details as they investigate the threats. In the meantime, police have increased patrols around the campus and threatened buildings.
Although the United States has had vigorous debate over the creation-evolution controversy, to date there have been no serious violent incidents, aside from an attack on Paul Mirecki, a professor at the University of Kansas, in 2005.
