18-Year-Old Charged With Terroristic Threats After Note Left at Ann Arbor Elementary

Prosecutors moved forward with a felony charge following a search that found no firearms, with the suspect in treatment.

Overview

  • Police were called around 4:05 p.m. Jan. 16 after a note on a Haisley Elementary classroom window threatened a shooting during dismissal.
  • Officers found no firearms at the 18-year-old’s home, determined he acted alone, and reported no ongoing threat.
  • Community Mental Health coordinated immediate support, and the suspect is receiving treatment at a medical facility.
  • Prosecutors authorized one felony count of making terroristic threats and one misdemeanor count of making school threats, with a potential sentence of up to 20 years if convicted.
  • Arraignment will follow hospital release, as prosecutors seek a $250,000 bond, a GPS tether to keep him away from the school, and the district’s no-trespass order remains in effect.
