Lacey: Around 06:15 this morning, officers were asked to respond to the Oyster Creek Power Plant in reference to an employee who had a handgun in his bag. This was called in by plant security as they discovered it during a routine bag check.

Lacey PD has secured the weapon and has it in custody at their PD HQ. They also departed the power plant with no arrests, so the incident appears to be handled internally. No further details regarding the reason the employee brought the gun will be available as the power plant isn’t a public entity. We cannot OPRA their operations directly.
