Anonymous video ties March MacDill threats to new group, FBI widens probe

The FBI has broadened its investigation of threats at MacDill Air Force Base to include an anonymous 3‑minute video sent to the Tampa Bay Times in which a speaker claims responsibility for past threats, cites a March 10 bomb, and references a group calling itself the New Weathermen Underground; the Times relayed the video to investigators, asserting the statements are unverified, while MacDill remains at elevated security (FPCON Charlie) as authorities pursue the probe and review whether the video’s claims are connected to the earlier threats.
