When will people learn that threats against the President are not a joking matter?
STORY: Indicted! White House Shooter Charged With Attempted Assassination Of The Prez
31-year-old Anton Caluori is accused of making an email threat against President Barack Obama and subsequently brandishing a shotgun at officers when they came to his Washington home.
According to the Associated Press:
Secret Service spokesman Brian Leary says 31-year-old Anton Caluori was arrested Tuesday at an apartment in Federal Way for investigation of making threats against the president and assault on a federal officer.
U.S. attorney’s spokeswoman Emily Langlie says the threat was sent to a general purpose FBI email address.
A Secret Service agent and a Federal Way police officer went to an apartment, knocked and announced themselves for about three minutes, then found themselves facing a man armed with a shotgun when the door opened.
Leary says Caluori is set to appear at 2 p.m. Wednesday in court. Last year, Oscar Ramiro Ortega-Hernandez was arrested and charged with attempted assassination of the President, after he tried to shoot out a White House window.
