A Lee County man has been arrested on a first-degree terrorist threat charge after allegedly threatening to blow up an Ulta Beauty store in Opelika. The suspect, identified as 42-year-old Timothy Lincoln, reportedly made the threat in the store, leading to an immediate evacuation of employees and the arrival of police on the scene.

According to court documents, an Ulta Beauty employee overheard Lincoln say, “I’m going to blow this **** up,” and alerted authorities. Opelika police quickly responded and detained Lincoln without incident.

Lincoln’s mugshot revealed several colorful scribbles across his face, though authorities have not clarified the reason for the markings. Along with his arrest, Lincoln has been permanently banned from all Ulta Beauty locations, according to WRBL 3 News.

The investigation is ongoing as law enforcement continues to gather evidence related to the incident.
