D.C. man admits to Amtrak bomb threats

A 27-year-old District man pleaded guilty Tuesday and admitted to making two separate, false bomb threats against Amtrak, officials said.

Michael Jerome Dennis admitted to making threats in telephone calls to Amtrak's National Communications Center on Nov. 30 and Jan. 19, according to the U.S. Attorney's Office. The calls each warned of a bomb going off at the New York Avenue Northeast bridge just north of Union Station. Dennis was working for a contractor at a site near the bridge at the time, and officials said every Amtrak train from the Northeast Corridor that goes in and out of Union Station passes under the bridge.

He faces between 18 to 24 months in prison and a maximum of life in prison.

Body found in D.C. ruled a homicide

The death of a man whose decomposing body was found in Southeast D.C. on Saturday has been ruled a homicide, police said.

About 3:15 p.m., police responded to the report of an unconscious person on the 1900 block of Curtis Court SE and found the man's remains. An autopsy found the man died as a result of multiple blunt-impact injures, D.C. police said.

The man has not yet been identified. A police spokesman said the body had been there for a while but did not know exactly how long.
