Jury finds Akron man guilty of making bomb threat

LE MARS — A jury has found a western Iowa man guilty of making a bomb threat on a government building and attempting to fight law enforcement officials while naked in his living room. Jeremy Hebert, 37, of Akron was found guilty Wednesday of making a threat to use an explosive or incendiary device. He also was convicted of three counts of assaulting law enforcement officers. Hebert was arrested in November, and authorities say he told them he would drop a bomb on the White House.
