FLORENCE, AL (WAFF) -
Court documents reveal new information about a man charged with making a terrorist threat at Eliza Coffee Memorial Hospital in Florence.
Investigators said Rodney Lee Lightfoot said he would "make Sandy Hook look minor" if he did not receive care in the hospital emergency room.
According to Florence Police, Lightfoot, of Franklin County, also said he would kill people across North Alabama by using explosives and fire.
Lightfoot reportedly said he had a previous arrest for criminal possession of explosive components and assault in Texas. Florence Police check his criminal history and found an explosives arrest in 2003.
A background check showed no other charges for Lightfoot in Alabama.
