NEW YORK — The United States (US) Secret Service arrested a 72-year-old man in New York on Monday (Jan 10) after he allegedly phoned them threatening to kill ex-president Donald Trump, a criminal indictment showed.

Prosecutors in Brooklyn say Thomas Welnicki"knowingly and wilfully threatened to kill, kidnap, and inflict bodily harm upon" the former US president.

"Oh yeah that's a threat, come and arrest me. I will do anything I can to take out [Individual-1] and his 12 monkeys," Welnick, who lives in Queens, is alleged to have said. "He repeatedly referred to Individual-1 as 'Hitler' and stated, 'I will do everything I can to make sure [Individual-1] is dead," reads the indictment.
