Nampa police arrest man on terrorism, stalking charges after he allegedly makes bomb threat
Nampa police arrested a 22-year-old man on charges of felony terrorism and misdemeanor second-degree stalking after investigating false bomb threats.
The bomb threat area of concern was Constitution Way and South Juniper Street, near Liberty Park.
“Officers and investigators at the site of the potential bomb threat searched the area utilizing several types of equipment. They were not able to locate any suspicious items or substances,” according to the Nampa Police Department.
After interviews, detectives arrested Grant C. Stevenson, of Nampa, under the Terrorist Control Act, a felony, and 2nd-degree stalking, a misdemeanor.
He was booked into the Canyon County jail and will appear in court on Friday.
Police said they initially learned of the threat in a message on social media. On Thursday evening, police asked people in that area to shelter in place and not go outside, but that directive is no longer in place.
