NEW YORK (VINnews) — A security guard at the Columbus Torah Academy in Ohio was arrested this week by local police after making anti-Semitic threats online against the school.
Thomas Develin, 24, of the Northwest Side, was arrested Wednesday. Develin had posted a photo of himself on social media site Discord holding a gun with the message “I’m at a Jewish school and about to make it everyone’s problem.” He also posted about wanting to shoot the parents picking up their children from school. A second photo was captioned: “The playground is about to turn into a self defense situation.”
Police were alerted to the post and arrested Develin for his threats. He is currently being held in the Franklin County jail.
Joel Marcovitch, CEO of JewishColumbus, the local federation arm and JewishColumbus board chair Audrey Tuckerman issued a press release on Thursday calling Develin’s threat “an act of anti-Semitism.”
