Twin brothers are accused of making threats against immigration officials in Atlantic County.

Authorities say Emilio Roman-Flores and Ricardo Antonio Roman-Flores are charged with making terroristic threats.

They are U.S. citizens who live in Absecon. Their alleged social media post calling to "shoot ICE on sight" prompted SWAT to take them into custody yesterday.

Officials say guns and ammunition were seized. The brothers are accused of saying they wanted to kill a Homeland Security official named Tricia McLaughlin.

Federal authorities say ICE agents overall are facing a surge in death threats, which has led to efforts to hide their identities.
