Waylon Kurts, 20, from Montpelier, Vermont, was expelled from St. Olaf College following his arrest MondayA student at a private southeastern Minnesota college who is originally from Vermont is facing multiple counts after authorities found several items in his dorm room that school officials believed posed a threat — including knives, a tactical vest and empty ammunition and magazine boxes — according to charges filed Monday.
According to the charges, the items found in Kurts’ dorm room included a tactical vest, empty boxes for ammunition and magazines, a tactical knife, a folding knife, firearm earmuffs, six propane canisters, fireworks, lighter fluid, a battery with wires and a lock pick set. Kurts is a sophomore from Montpelier, Vermont, and a member of the college’s track team. He was arrested Thursday and suspended from the private school in Northfield.
St. Olaf officials said they became suspicious of Kurts last week when a custodian saw two empty packages for high-capacity magazines in a garbage can.
