Louisiana woman accused of threatening personnel at primary school

BATON ROUGE, La. (Louisiana First) — A Bayou L’Ourse woman was arrested and charged after the Assumption Parish Sheriff’s Office responded to a primary school on Friday, Aug. 29.

Deputies investigated a reported disturbance at the Bayou L’Ourse Primary School that led to the arrest of Brooke Nicole Gambrell Rulf, 27. School administrators told investigators that Ruff came to the campus and threatened personnel.

Deputies added that this is the second time an incident has occurred involving teachers or support staff in the last two weeks at different locations in the parish. The other case involved a parent boarding a school bus and threatening the driver.

“We will take a very hard line on anyone who does this,” the sheriff’s office stated.
