A homeless man has been charged with making a terroristic threat after repeatedly telling a University of Texas (UT) Police Department officer that he was going to go “shoot all the rich kids at UT,” the officer said.
A campus police officer said Dakota Carl Blakely, 25, made the threats “repeatedly and calmly” during a medical examination at Travis County Jail on Sept. 22, where a nurse was also present. Blakely was taken to the jail after he reportedly assaulted a security officer at Dell Seton Medical Center, which is located on the UT campus in Austin.
