A man in North Dakota named Ian Patrick Stewart is accused of threatening to hurt former President Barack Obama.

He is also accused of breaking into a historical site, Fort Union Trading Post, and threatening a Park Service employee and law enforcement.

The incident caused the historic site to be closed while law enforcement responded.

Stewart is facing multiple charges, including threats, property damage, and burglary.

The threats against Obama allegedly occurred between April and May.

The Fort Union Trading Post is located near the Montana-North Dakota border and focuses on the fur trade history.
