The FBI says Norman Leboon, 38, told investigators he was the “son of the god of Enoch” and that he had posted a video on the Internet threatening the lives of Rep. Eric Cantor of Virginia and his family.
The video was reported to the FBI in San Francisco on Friday and Leboon allegedly told agents he posted it on Wednesday.
An investigation led agents to an address in Northeast Philadelphia, where they learned Leboon, who was a fugitive from state charges of making terroristic threats, also lived.
They compared a mug shot of Leboon with a man on the video and determined he was the same person.
Leboon was arrested Saturday.
If convicted of the charges against him, Leboon faces a maximum possible sentence of 15 years imprisonment, 3 years supervised release and a fine up to $500,000.
And the arrest of the militia members was Sunday.
