‘Jihad Boom’ Postcards Mailed To Schools

Police Release 9 Threatening Postcards

Investigators in Marion County, Fla., are searching for the author of nine postcards sent to different schools on the same day with the words ‘Jihad-Boom” and handwritten cartoons of a building apparently exploding with people inside.

Investigators released the postcards with the threatening drawings on them Monday in hopes of generating leads in the case.

Officials said that the postcards are made up of various and traditional themes, and each one has a distinctive hand-drawn cartoon on it. Several of the threats arrived on postcards featuring Walt Disney World. Detectives said the threat-maker crossed his or her No. 7s and attached a suffix to the address.
