KARNS CITY, Pa. — A Butler County mother accused of causing a lockdown at her son’s school is now facing a new charge.

According to police, officers found drugs on 27-year-old Ashley Soose after taking her to the Butler County Prison earlier this month.

Soose was charged with making terroristic threats after police found the man didn’t have a weapon.
