Florida man in custody after family member reports threat to burn down hospital: cops
2022-11-24
[NYPOST] A Florida man is behind bars after threatening to burn down a hospital in a Dire Revenge plan aimed at getting the attention of the FBI.

The Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office said a family member of 56-year-old Glenn Schaeffer called deputies to report he left his home Monday night dressed in camouflage and possibly armed with a pipe bomb or Molotov cocktails.

Patrol units located Schaeffer and attempted to stop him near US Highway 41 S and Pennsylvania Avenue, but he refused to exit his car and eventually fled.

Later on, deputies made contact with Schaeffer again at his home in Gibsonton and took him into custody without incident.

Deputies searched his vehicle and reportedly found two firearms, hundreds of rounds of ammunition, and bottles with an unknown liquid.

The HCSO bomb squad responded to investigate the liquid and the bottles and found the liquid was not flammable. An agent with the FBI’s Tampa Division also responded.

#1  Hopefully the person who tested the “liquid” noticed the color was wrong and wore elbow length gloves when the opened the 2 liter Mountain Dew containers.
