(Marshall Township, PA) A man from Beaver County has been arrested and charged with leaving a threatening voicemail message at the Islamic Center of Western Pennsylvania mosque in Marshall Township. Fifty-four-year-old Ted Frank of Center Township, has been charged with felony counts of ethnic intimidation and terroristic threats after police stated that a bomb threat was called into the mosque as part of what police described in court paperwork as a threatening voicemail left on the center’s phone on Friday. Northern Regional Police expressed in court documents that the voicemail threatened the well-being of Muslims and caused panic within the mosque on Warrendale Bayne Road, which was evacuated. According to the criminal complaint, investigators traced the phone number the voicemail was left from and were able to link the phone call to Frank. Police quoted Frank as saying in the alleged message that Muslims should leave the United States and “go back to Iran.” Court records state that Frank was denied bail and he is being held in the Allegheny County Jail. His preliminary hearing is scheduled for early April.
