A 33-year-old Italian former
radical Catholic who became a supporter of ISIS was arrested
Monday after claiming in an email Saturday he had planted a bomb
in Brescia's Piazza Duomo ahead of the arrival of the Lombard
city's new bishop Pierantonio Tremolada. No device was found.
The man was already reporting to police under a judicial order
issued for apology of Islamist terrorism via the Internet. The
man reportedly told police he had invented the bomb story
because he was angry at being forced to sign in with police.
