BOWLING GREEN, Ohio (AP) — Bowling Green State University in Ohio has suspended an associate professor accused of making verbal threats to colleagues.
A spokesman said Monday the suspension of Bruno Ullrich took effect Jan. 22 and is not a response to last week’s arrest of an Alabama professor accused in the fatal shootings of three colleagues.
Bowling Green spokesman David Kielmeyer declined to describe the nature of the threats allegedly made by Ullrich, who teaches physics and astronomy.
University police charged Ullrich on Feb. 5 with aggravated menacing and inducing panic, both misdemeanors.
