The University of Arizona's vet school tells us classes are canceled for the rest of today. They said classes will start back up tomorrow, but students will have the option of having an excused absence which will not count against them.

The Oro Valley Police Department tells KGUN9 the threat was not directly made towards the school. The threat came in the form of a phone call from someone at the vet school who possibly had mental health issues. They responded to the scene and now have the suspect in custody. They cleared the area around 4:30 P.M.A building was evacuated at the University of Arizona College of Veterinary Medicine location in Oro Valley, Wednesday afternoon around 1 P.M..
