By Corporal Powell Meads, Antioch Police Field Services Bureau
On December 9th, 2015 at approximately 1:33 PM, Antioch Police Officers were dispatched to Deer Valley High School for a threats complaint. School employees reported that a known parent, 41-year-old June Kirtman of Antioch, had threatened to blow up the school.
Arriving officers determined that Kirtman dropped her 15-year-old son off before school and he was assaulted near the Antioch Community Center (across the street from the high school). When Kirtman was advised of the assault, she responded to the office and became upset. Kirtman threatened to blow up the school, prompting the school staff to make mass calls to parents to inform them of the incident.
Kirtman was contacted at her residence and arrested without incident.
