The department said these threats aren’t unique to just Roswell. The same threats have been sent to other synagogues throughout the metro Atlanta area.
About a month ago, a Conyers synagogue was evacuated after receiving a bomb threat. In April, a teen was accused of posting a bomb threat on social media against a Forsyth County synagogue.
