A suspect in Utah is charged with a hate crime and other offenses due to alleged threats to blow up a synagogue.
Skyler AJ Rose, 22, allegedly made threats on social media, including, “I wanna blow up a synagogue.”
Investigators traced the threats to Rose’s home in Ogden, Utah, the US Department of Justice says.
Investigators searched Rose’s residence, finding six improvised pipe bombs, other bomb-making materials, two rifles and ammunition, the statement says.
On Rose’s cell phone, investigators found that he had searched for a synagogue in his area.
