An eastern Missouri man has been charged after allegedly threatening to open fire at a high school. Festus Police Chief Tim Lewis says 27-year-old Mitchell Lovelace reportedly posted the threatening message Saturday night against Festus High School.
Rittenhouse took an AR-15-style gun to a Wisconsin riot last year – shooting to death two people and injuring a third. Chief Lewis expressed appreciation to the concerned citizen who reached out to report the threatening message.
Lovelace is being held by authorities without bond. School leaders were notified and police patrols were increased around the high school earlier this week.
