A Massachusetts man is being held in federal custody after allegedly aiding and abetting an extortion attempt, conspiracy, and bomb threats at Harvard University last month.
Police shared that April 13"was the first 80 degree day of the spring, a day when students and other members of the Harvard community would reliably be eating, studying, and socializing in the plaza and other outdoor spaces on campus."
