Utah man arrested after allegedly confronting a special needs school bus and saying he'd 'get a gun to kill' the driver and whoever was on the bus.
Barry Gene Bambrough, 57, faces charges of Threat of Terrorism, Assault Against a School Employee, Assault on a Police Officer and Disorderly Conduct.
According to police documents, the substitute bus driver was on his route in the area of 1850 North 75 West when he heard someone yelling at him. As the bus continued, the yelling got louder until Bambrough walked towards the driver's side window and attempted to pull the driver out of the bus so"he can kill him."
The officer who responded to the scene wrote about having previous dealings with Bambrough and went to his home. When told to come outside, Bambrough yelled expletives at the officer, and told them to take off their uniform and badge. Bambrough said he had talked to the bus driver, then told the officer he was going to"smash your head with my sledge hammer."
