Police have arrested a local man on a felony charge after they say he threatened schoolchildren walking to a bus stop in Savannah with a handgun Friday.
Jason Gregory Zimmerman, 28, of a Burbank Boulevard address was charged with terroristic threats and acts after Savannah-Chatham police and public school system officers interviewed almost 20 students, said Julian Miller, metro police spokesman.
Metro police were called in to support campus police at Pasadena Boulevard and Burbank Street about 7 a.m. after students reported Zimmerman had approached them about being loud.
During the discussion they said he produced a handgun and made threatening comments, Miller said.
Both agencies continue to investigate.
