Security Overhaul At Summerdale Town Hall

Walk in to Summerdale Town Hall and right away you see it. Bullet proof glass now separates the public from the ladies that work here. “We felt pretty safe here in a small town,” says Court Clerk Jenny Gipson, “but something like that happens and makes you think and start to worry a bit.”
A threatening phone message greeted employees when they got to work one day. “I had a message on the phone that was very intimidating, scary, threatening to kill us,” says Gipson.

The caller was later identified as Marcus Brown and he was pretty easy to find. His phone number showed up on Caller ID and he left his name on the message.
“He said that he was bored and wanted to call somebody,” says Gipson.

According to police, Brown picked up the phone, deliberately dialed Summerdale Town Hall and left profanity-laden messages threatening murder and other violence.
