• Charges dropped against Hudson man in St. Croix County church bomb threat case (weau.com) — Hudson residents may want to know that felony charges have been dismissed against a local man in a bomb threat case involving Faith Community Church, with Hudson police and the FBI finding no explosives. The case will stay open for a year under a deferred prosecution agreement requiring treatment, medication compliance, and no new offenses. If he meets the terms, the state will not pursue prosecution.
