A Salina man voices violent threats at a elementary school staff member and police dispatcher via phone calls before arrest.
According to SPD on Tuesday at 12:30 pm, officers were dispatched to Sunset Elementary School for a man identified as Chad Everett (39), who reportedly threatened a school staff member.
Reportedly, Everett called the school and got in contact with a 29-year old male staff member. SPD stated Everett called the school to make a complaint about a parent.
Throughout the call, Everett suddenly became irate with the staff member and voiced threats of physical violence towards him. SPD stated there is no evidence of the staff member saying anything that would have angered Everett.
Afterwards, officers were contacted by the school and began to locate Everett as they arrived to his house. However, officers were unable to make contact with him.
Consequently, Everett then contacted SPD via phone and spoke with a dispatcher. As the dispatcher was trying to get him connected with an officer, Everett became angry and threatened to attack the dispatcher.
SPD stated Everett also voiced racial slurs at the dispatcher during the call.
Later that same day at around 9:00 pm, officers responded to a home in west Salina where Everett was located.
Officers made contact with Everett this time and took him into custody. As they were placing him in a police vehicle, Everett reportedly kicked the door and struck an officer. He was then booked into the Saline County Jail on the following requested charges:
Criminal Threat, Harassment by Telecommunication Device and Battery of a Law Enforcement Officer.
Requested charges are still pending.
It was also determined that Everett was under the influence of alcohol.
