The arrest comes after an investigation involving two Rockland County police departments.
"At no time was there a threat to anyone on campus," Dominican College said in a statement. "Our Public Safety Department has been cooperating with local law enforcement on this incident and all safety issues."
Orangetown Police detectives were assisting Ramapo PD detectives in an investigation that led to a parking lot at Dominican in Orangeburg on Wednesday, Aug. 29.
