Brilliant man arrested for threatening students
BRILLIANT — A Brilliant man was arrested for threatening two Brilliant High School students through social media on Thursday afternoon, Oct. 24.
“There (were students who were) threatened by someone who was not a student,” said Brilliant Police Chief Robert Snow. “Due to the timing and nature of the threats, they put the school on lockdown. We responded, and the sheriff’s department came with us. We found the guy who was making the threats away from the school, and he was arrested.”
Snow said the threat was reported toward the end of the school day, which is why the school responded with caution.
