Crown Point Hospital Threat Leads to Felony Charges Against Arizona Man
Brandyn Lewis Chamberlain, 36, of Florence, Arizona, is facing multiple felony and misdemeanor charges after police say he made a threatening phone call to a Crown Point hospital.
According to a probable cause affidavit, police began investigating after Franciscan St. Anthony’s Hospital, located at 12750 St. Francis Drive in Crown Point, reported receiving a threatening phone call on November 20, 2025, at approximately 11:32 a.m.
The affidavit states the call lasted approximately 11 seconds and came from a phone number later traced to Chamberlain. During the call, a male voice allegedly stated:
“The nurse who was involved incident with that black female better be identified and she better be identified by the end of next week or I’m gonna blow your fucking hospital up.”
Hospital officials reported the threat to police the following day.
Investigators later ran the phone number through multiple databases, which all returned results identifying the number as belonging to Brandyn Chamberlain, with an Arizona address listed in court records.
On November 25, 2025, an investigator contacted the phone number. The affidavit states the male who answered identified himself as Brandyn Chamberlain. Initially, Chamberlain claimed he did not know what the call was about and stated he had lost his phone at a park the week prior. He later acknowledged that he had recovered the phone.
According to court documents, after further discussion, Chamberlain admitted that he did make the threatening phone call after seeing a news report involving a pregnant woman who he believed had been denied medical care. The affidavit states Chamberlain told investigators that out of anger, he called the hospital and threatened to “blow it up.”
The affidavit further states Chamberlain told investigators he had no intention of carrying out the threat and claimed he did not have access to any weapons. Police noted that part of the phone conversation was recorded, and in the recorded portion, Chamberlain admitted guilt.
