A former college student and ex-disc jockey is accused of threatening to ?shoot up? a Massachusetts campus radio station because it wouldn?t play a song he requested. Perhaps Alex Finnegan has never heard of Pandora or iHeartRadio where you can create your own radio stations and hear all of your favorites. There were reports that Finegan sais he was joking, however, that's not something police take lightly. Finnegan's dumb move got him arraigned Thursday on two threat charges.
Police say Finnegan graduated from Bridgewater State University and used to be a DJ at its radio station, WBIM. The station received multiple calls Monday from someone who requested a song by the punk band Rufio. The station did not have the song and police say the caller said he would ?come in with a gun and shoot up the place.? Just as an aside, when you type Rufio into Pandora or iHeartRadio, the album "Perhaps, I Suppose" comes up. It's very angry music, which, probably fits in with what took place here.
