Muncy area man charged with terroristic threats
Upset after seeing another man embrace his girlfriend at a restaurant in Woodward Township on Aug. 10, James Michael Campbell, who was “highly intoxicated,” started a brief argument with the man before Campbell and his girlfriend left the establishment, got in their vehicle and headed home, state police stated in an affidavit. While traveling together on Route 220 in the township, Campbell, 47, of 10055 Route 864, Muncy, “placed his hand over the pocket in which he keeps his firearm” and told the woman he would “shoot her if he caught her with another man,” it was alleged in the court document. At no point did Campbell “display the firearm,” police were told. Troopers responded to the Route 220 scene and questioned the two. A trooper located a firearm in Campbell’s pants pocket, police said, adding that Campbell denied threatening the woman with the gun. Charged with terroristic threats and harassment, Campbell was arraigned hours later before District Judge William Solomon and jailed in the Lycoming County Prison in lieu of $25,000 bail. He recently waived his preliminary hearing and is now free on bail
