A man from Schuylkill County is wanted for threatening to kill the President.
U.S. Marshals began searching for 26 year old Shawn Christy, of McAdoo Wednesday morning in Kline Township, near McAdoo, after executing a warrant.
Officials say he is considered "armed and dangerous."
Police raided his parents' home in McAdoo early Wednesday morning after authorities say Christy made threats to President Donald Trump and Northampton County's district attorney, as well as police.
Christy has been in trouble for similar threats before in 2012. He and his father were sentenced to probation for making hundreds of threatening phone calls to former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin and her attorney.
The U.S. Marshals believe Christy may be hiding in the woods in the McAdoo area.
If you see him, you're asked to call 911.
Anyone with information on his whereabouts is asked to contact U.S. Marshals at (484) 358-1974.
