North Idaho College investigating false alarms

Cd'A City Council members say citizens at meeting did not feel heard

Only one of two fire alarms that sounded Saturday during a chaotic meeting of the North Idaho College board of trustees was intentional, officials said Monday. NIC chief communications officer Laura Rumpler confirmed that an unidentified person intentionally pulled the first alarm, while the second alarm was sounded by mistake when an employee tried to reset it. The college is investigating the intentional alarm. Rumpler could not confirm Monday whether a suspect had been identified or if security footage showed the event.
