Threat to security at University of Winnipeg Downtown Campus

The University of Winnipeg boosted security on its downtown campus Thursday morning after university officials found troubling graffiti on a bathroom wall.

"There was a message left on the wall of one of our public facilities that indicated a threat — not in the near future, but within a couple of days — to the university community," university spokesman Dan Hurley told CBC News Thursday morning.

"It might just be a case of graffiti, but it might also be a more serious situation, so the university is treating it seriously."
