Troopers: Incident at Northville High leads to arrest of Edinburg man, 42, on weapons, threat counts

NORTHVILLE – An incident at Northville High School last week led to an Edinburg man’s arrest on weapons and threat counts, New York State Police said Thursday.

The incident involved the man attempting to intimidate a school administrator “when he made threats to inflict or cause injury,” police said.

Brian L. Perrott, 42, of Edinburg, was arrested Friday on one count each of fourth-degree criminal possession of a weapon and making a threat of mass harm, both misdemeanors.

Perrott is accused of being at the school legitimately Oct. 5, but while there attempting to intimidate the administrator, police said. Police did not describe the alleged incident further.

Police then got a temporary emergency protective order based on the nature of the investigation. Then, while executing that court order, police found Perrott in possession of multiple firearms at his home illegally.

Perrott was processed and released to appear in court later.
