    Orange County, FL - A man has been indicted on terrorism charges after allegedly threatening to bomb multiple locations across Orange County.

    Authorities say 43-year-old Hashem Younis Hashem Hnaihen is accused of leaving threatening letters at Starbucks locations in Orlando and Winter Park, a McDonald's in Maitland, and a solar power generation facility in Wedgefield.

    The letters contained threats to "explode everything here in whole America."

    In addition to the threats, Hnaihen is also charged with damaging the solar power facility.

    The nature of the damage is unspecified in the indictment.

    Hnaihen's indictment levies four counts of threatening to use an explosive device, as well as a charge of destroying an energy facility.

    Due to the terrorism-related charge, authorities are seeking forfeiture of any assets related to the alleged crimes.
