Whitehorse man, 73, arrested in relation to Vancouver Island mail bombing

WHITEHORSE — Police have arrested a 73-year-old Whitehorse man in relation to a mail bombing in Port Alice earlier this week.
Whitehorse RCMP made the arrest Thursday and also asked residents of an apartment building to evacuate while they conducted a search, “out of an abundance of caution.”
Residents were allowed to return home later that evening.
On Sept. 11, an explosion injured a retired pulp mill worker when a mail bomb went off after he opened a package at his home.
