The Florida man arrested in connection with the investigation into the mailing of more than a dozen bomb-like devices to prominent Democrats, also threatened Sen. Jeff Flake in social media posts.
Flake, a vocal Trump critic who abandoned his 2018 re-election efforts after enduring blistering attacks from President Donald Trump, declined to comment to The Arizona Republic Friday about Cesar Sayoc's social media posts targeting him and his wife.
One threatening message included an aerial photo of Flake's home.
Sayoc, 56, who posted pro-Trump material on social media, faces five federal charges in connection to the sprawling federal inquiry into the mailing of at least 13 improvised explosive devices to Democrats.
