A South Carolina man has been arrested after making threats at Harry Reid Airport earlier this week.
Jared Peeler was arrested on Monday, Sept. 9 after reportedly making threats to blow up the airport near an Alaska Airlines ticket counter.
According to staff and witnesses, Peeler approached the counter asking for assistance booking a flight to South Carolina. Agents informed him that they did not have a direct route which he became upset. An Alaska Airlines supervisor then asked Peeler to leave, which he refused and later began cursing at multiple people.
He then reportedly continued making threats, saying things like, "If I was a terrorist, I'd blow up this place," "Come back and shoot this s***" and "Trump 2024" leading employees to call out for police assistance. During an interview with detectives, Peeler stated that he was in town to make a sports bet and was trying to buy a ticket to Charlotte, South Carolina at the Delta counter but was refused service due to not having a card.When asked about the statement, Peeler explained that he only said "Good thing I'm not a terrorist and I'm not trying to blow up the airport" and denied ever saying the original statement.
