Dover Man Indicted for Threatening Presidential Candidates

A Dover man is facing federal charges for allegedly threatening to kill three presidential candidates.

The Justice Department announced 30-year-old Tyler Anderson is being charged with three counts of transmitting a threat.

Anderson was first arrested earlier this month after he allegedly sent text messages threatening to kill GOP presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy and attendees at a campaign event.

Officials said he first threatened another candidate in November and a third this month.

Each charge carries up to five years in prison.
