Quincy, Florida - A Florida man has been arrested for making threats against President Joe Biden, just days after an assassination attempt on his Republican rival Donald Trump.

Jason Patrick Alday (39) was arrested on Monday, the US Attorney's Office for the Northern District of Florida said.

Alday, of Quincy, Florida, allegedly "engaged in sending threatening communications, making threats against President Joe Biden and other federal officials," the office said in an announcement Wednesday.

According to the criminal complaint, Alday made threatening statements about Biden while being checked into a mental health facility in Tallahassee, Florida, last month.
