Martin O'Malley (D-Baltimore) and U.S. Senators Hillary Clinton (D-N.Y.) and Barbara Mikulski (D-Baltimore), as well as their "family and friends."

James Frost was arrested at around 10:30 a.m. yesterday at his home in Gaithersburg, a Washington D.C. suburb. He is currently being held at the Montgomery County Correctional Facility on charges of threatening to injure a public official.

According to NBC/News4, the state police learned of Frost's threats from the Montgomery County Sheriff's Office. His home is undergoing further searches.

The arrest came less than two hours before Arkansas Democratic Party Chairman Bill Gwatney was fatally wounded by a gunman in their Little Rock offices.

He used to talk to me at starbucks


I know this guy, not well, but he used to frequent the Starbucks where I worked. He was always talking about old Europe and I never really understood him. He was grumpy but seemed harmless enough...Guess I was wrong about him!
