A man from Delray Beach was arrested and charged after allegedly making threats to kill or harm faculty members at a college in Palm Beach County.
Christopher Revere, 35, was arrested after an investigation began in late January into threats made by email to faculty members at Florida Atlantic University, NBC affiliate WPTV reported Tuesday.
Revere allegedly sent repetitive emails using profanity and calling the faculty by derogatory names.
"As a soldier we carry the weight of expecting to kill an 'enemy' of our country," one of the emails said. "Imagine how I feel about your life."

Police attempted to reach out to Revere in late January, but he refused to open the door and would not answer questions. Officers entered his home days after initially making contact and found a bolt-action rifle, a semi-automatic pistol and several hundred rounds of ammunition.
Revere was arrested Monday on six counts of written threats to kill or do bodily harm. He was being held on $60,000 bond.
