By james art LAREDO, Texas (KGNS) – A man wanted for a threat that sent all Laredo schools into “secure mode” has been arrested. Juan Carlos Moreno, 41, was found at a home in the 3300 block of Lexington around 10:30 a.m., according to the Laredo Police Department.
A press conference is scheduled for 11:45 a.m. Tuesday, Oct. 22, at the Laredo Police Chief’s office. Chief Rodriguez will provide more details regarding the threat.
Baeza noted that Moreno was found based on where he left the threat. He described the threat as very general and vague. Police earlier warned the public not to approach Moreno, calling him a “dangerous man” and asked anyone with information to contact them.
Police notified all public, private, charter and other places with children about Moreno and the situation. Both the Laredo Independent School District (LISD) and the Unified Independent School District (UISD) have confirmed that all schools have removed “safe mode.”
The investigation is ongoing as police work to learn more about the incident.
