A disgruntled former Transportation Security Administration agent who allegedly made threats to Los Angeles International Airport on Tuesday also left a series of packages that have prompted evacuations and visits from the bomb squad, according to the Los Angeles Times.
Nna Alpha Onuoha, 29, was arrested late Tuesday sleeping in a van outside of Harvest Christian Fellowship in Riverside and charged with one count of making a false threat and making threats affecting interstate commerce, according to Associated Press.
Packages were found at Onuoha's residence and at the TSA office located at LAX. In the closet of his apartment Onuoha had left a letter saying, "09/11/2013 THERE WILL BE FIRE! FEAR! FEAR! FEAR!" Eddie Roybal, the former veteran's case manager for Onuoha, received a package on Wednesday afternoon. Roybal called the police and did not open the package, according to the Los Angeles Times.
"He didn't say much by hello and goodbye," Roybal said about Onuoha. "He never bothered anyone."
None of the packages that were discovered contained any dangerous materials. Instead they had lengthy, often rambling, letters in them. The letters condemned al-Qaeda while celebrating Jesus and Israel while saying that Satan had corrupted most of the world, according to the Associated Press.
"On the day that I release the message... even the once mighty American government that gloats with arrogance will be reduced to nothing just like the nothing that she is," one of the letters said. "Do not expect another 9/11. What will unfold on this day and on the days ahead will be greater than 9/11."
Onuoha was suspended from his job as a TSA agent in July after becoming offended at the way a 15-year-old girl was dressed and telling her to cover herself. The incident became public when the girl's father, Mark Frauenfelder, blogged about the incident saying that his daughter had been humiliated, according to the Associated Press.
Authorities never found any weapons or hazardous materials on Onuoha or in his apartment. The only thing of interest they found was a four-foot tall cross he left at his church saying "Rejoice King Jesus Is Near. His Army Are Coming," according to the Los Angeles Times.
