A 21-year-old Haughton man was arrested Thursday after allegedly threatening to “shoot up the school” at a campus located on the grounds of Camp Minden, authorities said.
According to investigators, an instructor at the Northwest Louisiana Technical Community College branch on the Camp Minden grounds overheard Austin Rae Stone making the threat. The instructor evacuated the building and alerted Camp Minden security and the Sheriff’s Office.
Deputies responded to the scene, where Camp Minden authorities reported seizing 950 rounds of .22 caliber ammunition from Stone’s vehicle. No firearm or additional ammunition was found during a further search of the vehicle or the school building.
Webster Parish Sheriff Jason Parker said Stone is being held at Bayou Dorcheat Correctional Center on a charge of terrorizing. His bond was set at $15,000.
