Iron County (MO) police arrest man they say threatened to shoot bus with AR-15

IRON COUNTY, Mo. — The Iron County Sheriff's Office and Annapolis Police Department arrested a man Friday afternoon after he threatened to shoot a bus.

The sheriff's office got a call at about 3:00 p.m. Friday regarding a man armed with an AR-15 threatening to cause harm to others. He was dressed in camouflage.

According to witnesses, the man said he was going to shoot a nearby bus.

As a bus driver reached his routine stop Friday afternoon, he noticed the armed suspect at the entrance of Hidden Valley and Missouri Highway 49. The bus driver decided to keep driving.

The sheriff's office identified the man as Bryan Baldwin.

Annapolis Police Chief Ben Starnes secured Baldwin within minutes and took him into custody. At the time of his arrest, Baldwin was in possession of an AR-15 with two loaded magazines and a handgun.
