A North Platte woman has been charged with a felony after police say she pointed what turned out to be a BB gun at a woman’s chest.

At around 2:35 pm, on March 15, an officer met with a victim in the 600 block of West 6th Street.

The victim told the officer that they had been at a meeting when they were approached by Amy Klinkefus.

The victim alleges that Klinkefus said she was suicidal.  When the victim asked Klinkefus why, she allegedly pulled a handgun out of her waistband and pointed it at the victim’s chest.  Klinkefus reportedly told the victim that she “wasn’t playing around.”

Amy was contacted by officers in the 1000 block of West 4th Street and acknowledged that the event had indeed taken place and stated that the gun wasn’t even real.

Officers seized the gun, which turned out to be a BB gun, and placed Klinkefus under arrest.

She was jailed at the Lincoln County Detention Center and charged with felony terroristic threats.
