FBI arrests (guess) man for threatening Pinellas mosque and leaving his name in the process [View all]

Florida man helpfully left his name when making threats, making it easy for cops to track him down;

The FBI said the caller claimed he was "going to personally have a militia … come down to … firebomb you (and) shoot whoever is there."

And then, he left his name.

The FBI arrested Martin Alan Schnitzler, 43, on Tuesday on a federal charge of making a telephonic threat to kill, injure or intimidate using fire or an explosive.

If convicted, Schnitzler, who lives in Seminole, could face up to 10 years in prison.
