A Gwinnett County man allegedly threatened to kill a Kennesaw State University student on the campus.
Between 10:24 a.m. and 2:45 p.m. Monday, Ryan Christopher Berry of Lilburn contacted the student and told him “he was going to rip his throat out and stuff it down his lungs,” according to an arrest warrant obtained by The Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
“The accused planned to arrive at Kennesaw State University and locate the victim and put the victim in fear for his life and safety by using threatening words and threatening to take the victim’s life by any means necessary,” authorities said in the warrant. “The accused stated … that if he could not complete the act in the bathroom of Prillaman Hall,” he would “go the victim’s home and finish him off along with his family.”
The threat was heard by a third party, according to the warrant.
Berry, who was arrested on charges of terroristic threats and conspiracy to commit a crime, is in the Cobb County Adult Detention Center in lieu of $50,000 bond, according to jail records. He is not affiliated with Kennesaw State, university spokeswoman Tammy DeMel told The AJC.
