NEW SMYRNA BEACH, Fla. – A 20-year-old man from Edgewater is accused of making a terroristic threat against the South Causeway Bridge in New Smyrna Beach, which crosses the Indian River North, connecting New Smyrna Beach and the inlet.<\/p>\n
Logan Everett Cimms was arrested and booked into jail on one count of making a written threat to commit an act of terrorism, according to the arrest affidavit and online records. A Florida judge issued no bond and ordered Cimms to be held in pretrial detention.<\/p>\n
“Id (sic) recommend not walking that bridge for a while.”<\/p>\n
