Bergen Man Who Made Terror Threats Released From Jail: Prosecutor

WYCKOFF, NJ — A 18-year-old Ramsey man charged with making terroristic threats against a Bergen County high school has been released to Bergen County from New York, the Bergen County Prosecutor's Office confirmed.

The man was released conditionally on Tuesday. Patch has asked officials for confirmation of the school that was threatened, as well as where Natoli attends school. But the Prosecutor's Office could not comment.

Luke Natoli was first arrested in Poughkeepsie on April 12, Bergen County Prosecutor Mark Musella said.

He was arrested after Montvale Police reported someone had threatened to bring a gun to a Bergen County high school's sports practice on April 12, Musella said.

Natoli was charged with second-degree false public alarm, third-degree terroristic threats, and harassment, which is a disorderly persons offense, according to Musella.

Montvale Police first alerted Musella's office that "an unknown telephone caller using technology to anonymize his calling line identity ('caller ID') placed a telephone call to a Bergen County high school official claiming that he was going to bring a gun to a sport's practice that afternoon," Musella said.
