Muslim student at UT Arlington says man with gun followed her to campus, threatened her

A UT Arlington student reported being threatened at gunpoint by an unknown suspect on campus Wednesday morning.

The Muslim student told police she was followed by the man for six miles before reaching campus. The man who followed her was driving a white Ford pickup with a Texas flag on the antenna.

When the student parked her car about 9:15 a.m. in Lot 49 at South Cooper and West Mitchell streets, she said, the suspect got out of his truck, yelled a threat and pointed a gun at her. Afterward, the man left the scene.

The suspect was described as a white man in his mid-30s wearing a camouflage baseball cap, a short-sleeve blue shirt and bluejeans. He also wore a black bracelet and a wooden bead bracelet on one wrist.

What better tool for terrorizing than a harmless inamiate object?

Like Killer Hicks did.

Maybe this was just over a campus visitor parking spot also?

loaded guns anywhere they want to. Way to go GOPers, you have your panic buttons and DPS escorts but us serfs have to fend for ourselves.
