POSTED: 6:29 am PDT June 26, 2009

A 45-year-old parolee is back behind bars Friday after being arrested in Valley Center on suspicion of threatening to kill his former parole officer, a sheriff's sergeant said.

Jeffrey Scott Ashbaugh was arrested at his aunt and uncle's home in the 12300 block of Santa Catalina Road around 3:45 p.m. Thursday, according to San Diego County sheriff's Sgt. Bob Niderost.

Earlier in the day, Ashbaugh made statements that he had obtained a long rifle and was going to kill his former parole officer, Niderost said, adding that a .22 caliber rifle was found in the living area of the mobile home Ashbaugh had been living in.

Ashbaugh was booked into the Vista jail in lieu of $10,000 bail, according to jail records. He faces charges that include being a felon in possession of a firearm, Niderost said.
