An arrest has been made in threat to Winneshiek Medical Center

An Allamakee County resident has been arrested in connection with last Saturday's phone call that sent Winneshiek Medical Center into a lock down.

58-year-old William Harrison Junior was taken into custody Thursday and charged with Felony Threat of Terrorism and two counts of Aggravated Misdemeanor Harassment.  Additional charges are pending.

Winneshiek Medical Center received a threat via a phone call around 1:30 last Saturday afternoon, November 24th.  The threat was immediately reported to the Winneshiek County Sheriff's Office.  The threat included multiple acts of violence directed to the Winneshiek Medical Center and staff. 

The Decorah Police Department and Winneshiek County Sheriff's Office began a joint investigation with the assistance of the Winneshiek County Attorney's Office.  That led to a search warrant being served on Harrison at his home in rural Allamakee County Thursday. Harrison was taken into custody without incident and transported to the Winneshiek County Jail.
