(KMZA)--An employee of a Wamego company is accused of making threatening comments against co-workers on social media.
According to a news release from Wamego Police Chief Mike Baker, Erik Billis was arrested March 17th at Caterpillar Work Tools Inc. on a charge of criminal threat following an investigation by the Wamego Police Department and Pottawatomie County Sheriff’s Department.
Baker says Billis was taken into custody without incident.
In the Facebook post, Billis said he had officially snapped and mentioned a shooting spree sounding fun to go on at place where you hate everyone.
KMAN radio reports Billis made an appearance in a Pottawatomie County courtroom Tuesday where his bond was set at $25,000. He scheduled to make his next appearance in court April 5th for a status hearing.
