A northern California man who was under investigation for allegedly threatening the lives of DEA agents and their families via the Internet, was arrested late last week after park rangers saw him wave a gun at a national monument near the Oregon border, the Associated Press reported.
AP reported that rangers arrested Micha Godfrey, 37, after he waved a gun at the Lava Beds National Monument. He was wearing a bullet proof vest. He was charged with a felon in a possession of a firearm and ammunition.
He was being held in the Sacramento County jail pending a March 26 prelimary hearing.
AP reported that the DEA issued a statement saying the man had made threats against DEA agents and their families in emails to a pro-medical marijuana website.
Authorities searched his home on Friday and found four firearms, a second bulletproof vest and marijuana plants, AP reported. Godfrey has convictions for burglary and obstructing or resisting an executive officer.
