The RTA hub was evacuated and temporarily closed due to the threats, according to an affidavit filed in Dayton Municipal Court.
An officer investigating the bomb threat calls at the RTA bus hub helped to identify Chirco as the person who also appeared in June 16 and June 23 video footage at DECA PREP elementary school in Dayton on June 16 and June 23.
Chirco reportedly damaged a rear door at the school and left graffiti on a back door that included a racial slur and bomb threat at the federal building, as well as the phrase “Decca Academy sucks get out or die!”
An officer investigating the RTA incident reportedly told a detective that Chirco had been arrested previously for making threats.
Detectives went to Chirco’s house, where they met his brother who identified Chirco in still images of the school video, the affidavit stated.
Investigators found Chirco at Kettering Health Dayton, where multiple bomb threats were called from in the past few days, according to detectives. He was reportedly wearing the same hat and shirt shown in one of the videos from Deca Prep, according to court records.
Chirco remains held in the Montgomery County Jail.
