Ryan Breheny told a 999 call handler he had been “offered an AK-47'
A man who threatened to kill Labour's Culture Secretary Lisa Nandy and 'execute' hospital staff was armed with a loaded crossbow when police came to his home. Ryan Breheny, 48, told a 999 call handler he had been “offered an AK-47 and was going to execute everyone in a hospital wearing a uniform'. Less than an hour later, he sent two threatening email messages to Wigan MP Lisa Nandy's constituency office in which he threatened to kill the Labour front bencher.
He admitted making threats to kill at a previous court appearance. In a victim personal statement, which was read to the court, the office manager who opened the emails said: “I was shocked and genuinely believed that this man could’ve carried out the threats that he was making.” Abbie Clarke, of the CPS, said after sentencing: “Breheny’s threats have caused fear and distress to the staff at the MP’s office.
