Representative Jared Moskowitz, a Democrat representing Florida’s 23rd District, reported on Thursday that a local constituent was taken into police custody after allegedly making death threats against him. Moskowitz shared the news via social media, noting that the arrest occurred in Boca Raton, a location he described as being only a few miles from his own home.

While the congressman confirmed the arrest and the nature of the threats, specific details regarding the identity of the suspect, the exact nature of the communication, or the specific charges filed by law enforcement have not yet been released to the public. The incident highlights the ongoing security concerns faced by members of Congress, who have seen an increase in reported threats in recent years. Moskowitz’s office has not provided further commentary on the investigation, which remains ongoing as local authorities process the case.
