GREELEY, Colo.—A University of Northern Colorado doctoral student has been arrested and barred from campus, after allegedly making threats and collecting a number of guns.
The Greeley Tribune reports that 43-year-old Eric Nicholas Kinder was arrested earlier this week after university officials reported him to police. He was being held Friday on $75,000 bond.
In an arrest affidavit, police said Kinder had displayed “dangerous behavior” in his writings and school work.
UNC said Kinder began showing up at administrative offices on Monday, insisting on speaking to officials. Kinder spoke about his gun collection on Facebook and investigators say he purchased at least nine guns this year.
Kinder has been working on a Ph.D in statistics and research methods.
