JOPLIN, Mo. — A Joplin man is charged after police say his threats shut down the Neosho post office.

Police say Weaver continuously called an alleged victim and threatened to shoot him and “shoot up” the Neosho post office where the alleged victim works.

The man being threatened told authorities he was so scared he had to shut down the post office.
