This afternoon, some netizens discovered that a netizen who claimed to be surnamed Liu posted a post on Facebook, claiming that he would drive a Toyota sedan with a bomb to detonate the police station at 9 o'clock tomorrow night. He also said that he would use modified guns and daggers to assassinate all police officers. After receiving the report, the Zhongzheng Branch No. 1 in the jurisdiction did not dare to be careless. Since the detailed address and contact number of the netizen surnamed Liu were left in the post, the police immediately informed the Taichung City Police for further clarification.

The netizen surnamed Liu posted, "I have prepared the necessary bombs and detonating devices," "The police station will be in flames," and "During the chaos, I will assassinate all police officers present with a modified Taurus pistol and dagger."

A senior criminal police officer pointed out that in some recent online intimidation cases, the posters will deliberately leave detailed personal information such as name, phone number, and address, seemingly to guide the police in investigating. This type of case is different from ordinary online intimidation in that it is quite deliberate. The police do not rule out that the criminals have ulterior motives, and the actual purpose may not be simply intimidation.

Open Questions

  • What is the true identity of the netizen surnamed Liu?
