Muslim UT-Arlington student admits making up claim that gunman followed her to campus, threatened her

Original story: A UT Arlington student reported being threatened at gunpoint by an unknown suspect on campus Wednesday morning.

The Muslim student told police she was followed by the man for six miles before reaching campus. The man who followed her was driving a white Ford pickup with a Texas flag on the antenna.

When the student parked her car about 9:15 a.m. in Lot 49 at South Cooper and West Mitchell streets, she said, the suspect got out of his truck, yelled a threat and pointed a gun at her. Afterward, the man left the scene.

The suspect was described as a white man in his mid-30s wearing a camouflage baseball cap, a short-sleeve blue shirt and bluejeans. He also wore a black bracelet and a wooden bead bracelet on one wrist.

The investigation is ongoing, and police are increasing patrols on campus.

Police ask anyone with information to call 817-272-3381.
