Campus Security filed a report with the Santa Barbara Police Department about hateful and threatening phone messages, emails and social media messages regarding the Board of Trustees Pledge of Allegiance news story. The only real threat was on a Breitbart post. It stated “identify, find, and execute those people that did that. Simple. They don’t belong here.” Campus Security is confident the other phone messages, emails, social media comments, etc, are harmless. Due to the anxiety the messages have caused on campus, security made the decision to bring in reinforcement. Three Santa Barbara Police Officers are currently stationed on campus and will be for at least a week. One officer is on West Campus and the other two are stationed on East Campus. So far, it has been fairly calm for them, according to Erik Fricke, director of Campus Security.

He was bald with a mustache and was wearing a black hooded sweatshirt at the time of the incident.
