Feb. 15—CHIPPEWA FALLS — A 40-year-old man accused by prosecutors of making threats last May toward a Chippewa County judge, and the courthouse as a whole, has now been charged with making new threats this week.

Harley Alcala, 40, was charged Thursday in Chippewa County Court with making threats to law enforcement, issuing a computer message to threaten or injury, and bail jumping. Judge Steve Gibbs immediately issued a warrant for Alcala’s arrest. Alcala is from Duluth, Minn., but since the incident last May, has moved to Bandera, Texas.
