"'Implied threat' to 60 residents being probed
By Leader Staff
Federal authorities last week warned dozens of Shawano area residents they may be targeted for potential violence or harassment.
Authorities have not disclosed how the list of names was obtained or why they believe there was a threat to the persons it named.
The FBI acknowledged the possible threat and the investigation in a brief statement made available to news media Wednesday.
“The FBI made a public announcement to 60 potential victims in Shawano, Wis. on Wednesday, Nov. 5. The FBI advised these individuals that they were potential victims of an implied threat that was discovered as part of an ongoing investigation,” said the statement, read by spokesman Leonard Peace. “Pursuant to FBI policy, the potential victims were notified of the implied threat.”
The statement added: “This is an ongoing investigation and specific details of this case will not be released at this time.”
