A 25-year-old man was arrested in Michigan for allegedly threatening to commit a violent attack if former President Donald Trump wins the election, CNN reports.

Prosecutors say Isaac Sissel sent a threat to the FBI National Threat Operations Centre in West Virginia.

It read, “I shall carry out an attack against conservative christan filth in the event trump wins the election.”

“I have a stolen ar15 and a target I refuse to name so I can continue to get away with my plans,” it continued. “Without a specific victim or ability to find the place I hid the gun, there’s not a thing the FBI can do until I complete the attack.”

Sissel will make his first appearance in federal court this afternoon.
