A homeless man was arrested after personnel at Huntley Community School District 158 told police about a threat he posted to bomb the school. On Facebook, the Huntley Police Department posted that district employees told them on Friday evening about the threatening social media post. The suspect, Jonathan M. Franzen, 22, made a threat to bomb “the school” and harm others in a SnapChat post. After spending "numerous hours searching locations and technology," investigators tracked down and located the man in Woodstock. The man who allegedly made the threat was apprehended Saturday evening. "It appears that the suspect had no means to carry out the threat, and indicated he had no intention to carry out the act," Huntley police said. Franzen is charged with one count of disorderly conduct.
