A man’s been arrested after making a bomb threat to police.

Nicholas Bray, 20, from Downs View in Royal Wootton Bassett, sent the bomb hoax to his local community policing team’s Facebook page via private message.

He’s said to have been intoxicated when he sent the message.

A short time after receiving the messages, officers attended his address to arrest him.

Bray has since been charged with sending a false message using electronic communication and has been released on bail to appear at Swindon Magistrates Court on 29 December 2017.
