Former Utah cop arrested for alleged threats against police department
SARATOGA SPRINGS, Utah — A former officer was taken into custody Monday night time after allegedly making threats towards the Saratoga Springs Police Division.
Jared Chuchran, 42, labored for the division since as early as 2012, and as lately as 2021, in line with public employment data. Sgt. Spencer Cannon with the Utah County Sheriff’s Workplace mentioned he’s now not in regulation enforcement.
In some unspecified time in the future on Monday, Chuchran made threats in opposition to the division and at the least one particular person there.
A SWAT workforce staged at a church in Lehi, however not because of any threats within the space. They’ve since disbanded.
Police don’t imagine there may be any hazard to the general public because the alleged threats had been focused on the division.
Chuchran was taken into police custody close to a tenting space in Juab County. No photographs had been fired through the incident.
He was taken to a neighborhood hospital to satisfy with a social employee.
