Christopher Silva, 43, was arrested Wednesday morning at his Stoneham home by the FBI Boston's Violent Crimes Task Force. He was charged with maliciously damaging the ATM with an explosive, the Woburn Police Department said in a Facebook post. Silva allegedly placed an explosive device on an ATM at Eastern Bank on Mishawum Road on Sept. 4 around 4 a.m., police said. Investigators found the ATM was tampered with, and it "sustained damage consistent with some type of an explosive device being detonated," the statement said.

George Russell Isbell Jr., 69, allegedly mailed the letter last month to Johnson's home in Tampa, Fla. The letter, which was sent in the days following the Sept. 10 slaying of Charlie Kirk, another conservative media personality and friend of Johnson's, alluded to various violent and deadly acts its author would love to see, though the letter's author did not threaten to personally carry out those acts.
