The United States Department of Justice announced hate crime charges on Thursday against a 22-year-old Utah man after he allegedly threatened online to blow up a synagogue. The Washington Examiner reported that federal authorities discovered six improvised explosive pipe bombs during a search of his home. [1]

According to the Washington Examiner, a federal grand jury in Salt Lake City indicted Skyler AJ Rose of Ogden on Wednesday. His charges include the possession of an unregistered destructive device, as well as threatening to kill or injure people and destroy a building with an explosive. [1]

The case follows other recent investigations into alleged threats against Jewish communities. As FTMQ News reported earlier, authorities in the United Kingdom recently charged two Iranian men who were accused of scouting a Manchester synagogue as part of an alleged chlorine bomb plot. [1][3]
