(BBC) A man who phoned 999 and made a grenade threat while citing the Islamic State group has received a community order.
Amarik Gangar, 29, of Whitehall Road, Handsworth, Birmingham, made a number of calls to emergency services on the morning of 17 August.
Birmingham Magistrates’ Court heard he repeatedly swore and was abusive.
On one of the calls, he said: “Bro, Islamic State is coming to the country in two days with grenades.”
He had pleaded guilty to the charge of communicating false information with the intention of inducing someone to believe there was danger of explosives.
