Man arrested for making terroristic threat in Columbia

UPDATE 9:11 a.m.: Officers were called Wednesday to a bomb threat at Security Finance at 1414 I-70 Drive Southwest.

Employees of the business said they called Bryan K. Williams about a payment.

The employees told the officers that Williams became irate over the phone and told an employee that he would come to the office and “shoot you, and I’ll take each and every one of you with a gun.”

An employee fielded a separate call from Williams in which Williams said he would place a bomb in the building and they would never know because he lives just around the corner. The employees said Williams kept referring to his “government training.”

ORIGINAL STORY: A man is in the Boone County jail today for allegedly making a terroristic threat.

Public arrest records show that police arrested 48-year-old Bryan Williams and booked him in jail just before 3:00 p.m. Tuesday.

Records show that Williams was arrested on suspicion of harassment and making a terroristic threat.

He’s being held on at least a $4,500 bond.

ABC 17 News contacted police for additional information about what led up to Hunt’s arrest and we are waiting to hear back.
