He was arraigned last week on charges of Bomb/Hijack Threat with Serious Public Alarm, Threat To Commit a Crime, and Attempted Civil Rights violation.
During his dangerousness hearing on Wednesday he was released on personal recognizance on terms that included having no contact with the Derby Street Shoppes, wear a GPS monitoring bracelet, and adhere to a curfew.
He will return to court June 7.
