A 20-year-old man is facing charges after authorities say he tweeted out a bomb threat during a Donald Trump rally in Connecticut.
Connecticut State Police say the US Secret Service contacted them yesterday afternoon after they say Sean Morkys posted on Twitter, "Is someone going to bomb the trump rally or am I going to have to?"
Police say that tweet was followed by another warning a friend to have his family members leave the rally so they wouldn't get hurt.
The Republican presidential hopeful appeared in Bridgeport, Connecticut,yesterday.
Authorities tracked the tweets to a Waterbury home, where they found Morkys. After determining he didn't pose an immediate threat, he was taken into custody and released on USD 25,000 bond.
No one answered a phone number for the Waterbury home. Morkys didn't immediately respond to a separate request for comment.
