CANYON COUNTY, Idaho — This article originally appeared in the Idaho Press.
A man has been arrested for sending a suspicious package to Caldwell City Hall and sending threatening emails to city councilmembers.
Jeffrey Lynn Noble, 54, of Meridian, was arrested Wednesday and charged with two misdemeanor counts of stalking and one misdemeanor count of threats against state elected officials, the Nampa Police Department announced in a news release. Noble is accused of sending a "suspicious package with suspicious markings" to Caldwell City Hall and making threats "against several Caldwell City Council Members via email," the release said.
The Nampa Police Department's Bomb Unit and Nampa Police K-9 Kyah responded to the suspicious package on June 27 and found that it did not contain anything dangerous. An investigation determined that Noble sent the package, the release said, and further investigating found that Noble was also the subject of a separate case involving the threatening emails.
The release did not include the content of the emails Noble allegedly sent.
The Meridian Police Department arrested Noble and he was booked into the Ada County Jail.
