Minnesota Man Arrested for Threatening Minneapolis Synagogue

The arrest follows multiple phone threats and heightened security ahead of Jewish holy days and the anniversary of a major attack.

A 21-year-old man was arrested after allegedly threatening to attack Temple Israel in Minneapolis.
The synagogue reported receiving multiple threatening phone calls on September 11.
Police increased patrols around Temple Israel due to the Jewish new year and the anniversary of the Oct. 7 Hamas attack.
The suspect used a phone app to disguise his voice when making the threats.
Authorities have not found evidence of antisemitic motives, but the timing of the threats is concerning.
