A Northwest Missouri State University Student charged with making terrorist threats appeared in court Tuesday.

Conner Stottlemyre, 19 of Blue Springs was granted bond in Nodaway County Court Tuesday morning.  According to the prosecutor’s office Stottlemyre’s bond was set at $10,000.  Conditions of the bond also included that Stottlemyre not be allowed on Northwest property or within Nodaway County unless in court or with his attorney.  He will also be required to wear a GPS tracking device.  The prosecutor’s office said if he were to cut off the device a separate felony for that would also be filed.

Stottlemyre is accused of making threats on Yik Yak that read, “I’m gonna shoot any black people tomorrow, so be ready.” He was arrested Wednesday in his dormitory.  Yik Yak is the same social media application a Missouri S & T student is accused of using to make threats.

Stottlemyre’s next court date is set for Dec. 22nd.
