An Arizona man has been arrested in Montana on charges of making online threats of terror

Authorities said on Sunday that an Arizona man who was wanted for allegedly making terroristic threats online has been taken into custody in Montana.

According to Flagstaff police, Justin Wayne Hill, 36, was arrested in Bozeman on Sunday.

A warrant for Hill’s arrest was issued after police said they received information on Friday of threats “related to mass shooting incidents posted to various school, government, and business review platforms.”

About 50 miles (82 kilometers) west of Flagstaff, near the community of Ash Fork in northern Arizona, is where Hill resides. The police have sought for the public’s assistance in finding Hill.

Police later released a picture of the vehicle Hill may have been driving, which had an Arizona license plate. Hill was taken into custody shortly after.

The possible criminal charges against Hill were not immediately made public by the police, who instead stated that more details would be released as they became available. source

A message was left with the FBI office in Flagstaff on Sunday afternoon, requesting comment.
