MINNEAPOLIS, Minnesota — A very detailed threat, emailed to every Minneapolis City Council member, now has the FBI investigating.
"I'm doing, you know, better," said first-term council member Robin Wonsley who was just elected in November.
Wonsley is one of three specifically named on the email.
"Unfortunately I experienced threats, even on the campaign trail. I anticipated the same as an elected official. For simply doing what I was called to do," Wonsley said.
The person making the threat posted addresses for Wonsley and two other council members and the person claimed to have an AR-15 and Glock 18 as well as 15 bombs. The message says they would "start planting bombs around a certain city council member's home."
The person says "I mean business" and ends with "See you in hell."
Former FBI agent Kyle Loven says the fact it's not a rambling incoherent message makes it more concerning.
"I think the specificity of the threat as well as the gravity of the threat and the specific way the author expressed their intent to carry this out has caused the FBI to take a very serious look at this," Loven said.
Wonsley says the offender will not stop her from doing her job.
"I hope that whoever sent that knows that their efforts did not prevail," Wonsley said. "I hope they understand and know that I'm still here. We're still here. We showed up to work. And we're going to keep showing up to work. To do what is necessary."
The FBI's Minneapolis division confirms that it is aware of potential threats made toward city council members over the weekend.
The agency explained in a statement sent out Tuesday that every threat is taken very seriously and will be investigated thoroughly.
According to Minneapolis FBI Public Affairs Officer Cyndi Barrington, the agency is working with both the Minneapolis Police Department and other partners to gather more information on the situation.
"My Council colleagues deserve to feel safe," said Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey in his own statement about the reported bomb threats. "These kinds of violent threats are not only frightening and dangerous, they are detrimental to recruiting our future leaders and deter qualified people from stepping into roles of public service."
