US man held over alleged threat to Jewish centre

Police in the US state of Ohio have arrested a man they believe threatened to carry out a shooting at a Jewish community centre.

James Reardon, 20, posted a video online of a man firing a gun with a caption identifying the centre in Youngstown, north of Pittsburgh.A shooting at a synagogue in Pittsburgh last year left 11 people dead. James Reardon was arrested in New Middletown, near Youngstown, on Saturday and charged with menacing and harassment. He is due to appear in court on Monday.

Investigators said the alarm was raised when a post appeared on Instagram showing a man firing a gun with the caption:"Police identified the Youngstown Jewish Family Community shooter as white nationalist Seamus O'Reardon."New Middletown Police Chief Vince D'Egidio said they believed Seamus O'Reardon was a pseudonym for James Reardon.

"He was implying that he was going to be identified as the shooter of the Jewish centre. That kicked off a very intensive investigation, a very rapidly evolving investigation,"

Where are the calls for Instagram to be taken offline a la getongab ? The hosting companies & payment processors denying service? A website and app known to host extremist material, used by mass shooters who have have posted whilst carrying out their attacks?

Its Jeremy

If he is a serious threat then they have certainly done the right thing.

Pardon me but he has a truly slap-able face.

Uk put him to the firing squad

When its a white guy its straight in with the arrest mug shot and when its not we dont even get a description when they are on the run? WhitePrivilege

Same scruffy attempt at a beard you see on the jihadists. Is it something about their failure to grow a real mans beard that drives them insane?

This kid is a loser, the Old Testament is the Torah. I can't stand Christians who can't understand this.

This guy like Trump will protect me. He is just like me. And he’s right.

The fact that he's grinning in his mug shot means he should get double penalty.

Keep rounding the idiots up! That's what we build the prisons for!
