A man who threatened to shoot President Donald Trump has been captured in Ohio, a law enforcement official told.
Shawn Richard Christy, 27, of McAdoo, Pennsylvania, had been on the run since June after a federal warrant was taken out that accused him of posting threats on Facebook against Trump and Northampton County, Pennsylvania, District Attorney John Morganelli. A US Marshals Service news release said Christy was found in a wooded area of Mifflin Township in northern Ohio.
According to officials, in June Christy posted online: "Keep it up Morganelli, I promise I'll put a bullet in your head as soon as I put one in the head of President Donald J. Trump." Christy was arrested Friday after a brief foot chase, the news release states. He was found with a knife and a .380-caliber handgun.
