A man has been arrested in connection to a bomb threat at Kalida Manufacturing on Wednesday. The arrest came following a call that was made to the Putnam County Sheriff’s Office, yesterday morning, in which the caller said there was a hostage situation and a bomb at KMI. Upon further questioning by the 911 operator, the caller claimed to be a terrorist, and then hung up. It was quickly determined that the call was made from inside the factory. Police, including a bomb squad, checked the place out, but found no explosives. Employees were then, one by one, interviewed in connection with the bomb threat. 23 year old Thomas Hollingsworth was arrested. Hollingsworth is being held in the Putnam County Adult Detention Center on charges of making terrorist threats and will be in Putnam County Municipal Court today. The case remains under investigation.
