Bomb threat at AC Judicial Building cleared, suspect arrested CPD investigated a bomb threat to the Adair Co. Judicial Building yesterday afternoon, and found the call to be an attempt to help the caller's wife avoid a court date. A Jamestown man is now in custody. By Ofc Josh Brockman Columbia Police Department, Chief Jason Cross On 11-13-18 at 11:54amCT, Adair County 911 received a call that the court house would blow up in 20 minutes. Court security Officers along with the Sheriffs Department and Columbia Police immediately began evacuating the building. The Columbia - Adair County Fire Department and other emergency services were placed on standby. Officers conducted a search of the building, and the building was reopened in approximately one hour. Circuit Court was in session at the time of threat. Once the building was opened, officers turned their focus toward the origin of the call. Officers were able to track down the call and after investigation determined that Nathan James Popplewell, 36, of Jamestown, KY, had purchased a non-contract phone that morning and placed the call. The call was an attempt to keep his wife from appearing in court as she was on docket for 1pmCT. Popplewell was lodged in the Adair County Regional Jail by Columbia Police Sgt. Jr Murphy who was assisted by Sgt. Roy. Popplewell was charged with Terroristic Threatening 1st degree. The charge is a Class C Felony and can carry a sentence of a minimum 5 years up to 10 years if convicted. The Columbia Police Department is continuing the investigation. NOTE: An arrest is not a finding of guilt. An individual placed under arrest is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty at some later criminal proceeding.
