Woman accused of making threats at Allegheny County buildings

PITTSBURGH — Investigators in Allegheny County are searching for a woman they say has been making threats at county buildings.
 
Precious Gantt is accused of unleashing a torrent of obscenities and death threats.
 
"Threatening to kill people.  Threatening to harm people.  Just being disruptive in the courts," said Sheriff William Mullen.
 
According to Mullen, Gantt upset workers in the family court division and firearms court division.
 
"I think from the threats alone, there's cause to be alarmed.  We take all threats that occur seriously," said Mullen.
 
Mullen said the tirades and threats began in early October and continued through last week.
 
Gantt is facing several charges, including terroristic threats.  Mullen said she will also be charged with impersonating a public servant for saying she was CIA.
