Connecticut State Police say a man is facing charges for allegedly threatening to bomb Donald Trump's rally in Waterbury.
Police say 20-year-old Sean Morkys sent out a tweet that read, "Is someone going to bomb the Trump rally or am I going to have to?"
Police say that tweet was followed by another that warned a friend to have his family members leave the rally so they wouldn't get hurt.
Officers say they arrested Morkys Saturday night and released him later that evening on $25,000 bond after determining he wasn't an immediate threat.
Morkys has been charged with breach of peace and threatening.
Police say he is due in court next week.
