Local man arrested after suspicious fax (Athens, Ohio)
2004-08-16
A Nelsonville man was arrested on an intimidation charge Wednesday after he allegedly sent a fax message to Athens County Municipal Court, suggesting that the court would be a place to find information on constructing a "thermo-atomic device."
Ameil Steve Weller, 35, of West Columbus Street in Nelsonville, was arrested after the fax was traced to his machine, and has been placed in jail in lieu of $100,000 bond.
Weller's fax allegedly also contained racial slurs, according to a press release from the Athens County Prosecutor's Office.
The release states that Weller was in the local municipal court last month on a littering charge. He also, however, has a 1993 conviction in Florida for making dangerous devices, and a 1994 conviction in the same state for possessing dangerous devices, according to the prosecutor.
Officers allegedly seized items from Weller including a federal flight regulations manual, a pilot's manual, instructions for manufacturing chemicals, and a New York City map.
The FBI has been advised of the case. Weller is scheduled for a preliminary hearing Friday.
