The source of the loud noise, reported by one resident at Hansee Hall, appears to be a large palette having fallen from a delivery truck as it was being unloaded near the resident's window.\n\nPolice searched the area and, after speaking to witnesses, were directed to the truck and the noise was consistent with an item falling from the truck.\n\nORIGINAL POST: UWPD and Seattle police are in the midst of a response in the north area of campus. More information will be posted here as it becomes available. Avoid the area until further notice.\n\nPolice response in north campus. Avoid area. More: alert.uw.edu\n\nSent at 7:21:30 AM Tue",
