Ohio Man Arrested For Multiple Courthouse Threats, Including Jackson County

Police arrest an Ohio man after they say he made dozens of bomb threats to courthouses, including here in Jackson and Josephine counties.

On Wednesday, police arrested 39 year old Lonny Bristow in Mansfield – that’s about an hour outside of Cleveland.

The arrest follows an investigation of bomb threats made in November and December, to courthouses and public buildings in Oregon, Washington, Nebraska, Tennessee and Mississippi.

Among the 28 threats in Oregon, the Jackson County Courthouse received a call on November 19th.

Police searched the building, but didn’t find anything.

Bristow is being held without bail.
