Police found in the suspect’s home assault rifles, shotguns and handguns.
A 58-year-old New York man named Nicola Pelle threatened to shoot 500 Jewish children at a summer camp at Yeshiva Ketana of Long Island.
Pelle claimed he was upset about lack of social distancing and masks.
“If I gotta go out there with a friggin’ machine gun and shoot all these people, I will,” Pelle allegedly said during a call to the police department, which later seized 14 weapons from the man’s home, including assault rifles, shotguns and handguns.
