Man banned for threatening to throw hot coffee on computer users

A local man was banned from all UF libraries Tuesday after Library West employees told University Police officers he threatened to throw his hot coffee on anyone using his favorite computer.

Officers found Roman Schulz, 60, sitting at a computer near the circulation desk on the ground floor of the Marston Science Library, according to the report.

Library West employees told police Schulz had a preferred row of computers and would pester and threaten others if those computers were occupied.

Schulz admitted he was frustrated with students cutting in front of him to use his favorite computer at Library West, but he stated that the coffee comment was not directed at anyone.

Schulz is banned from UF libraries for at least three years, unless he appeals the warning to UPD's director and chief.
