Rep. Randy Fine spoke with Fox News Digital after a man was arrested by federal authorities for allegedly vowing death on Fine and President Donald Trump.

An Ohio man was arrested by the FBI after allegedly making graphic threats against a Jewish Republican congressman and calling for the death of President Donald Trump.

Alex Justin Miller, 26, is accused of sending a "true threat" to Rep. Randy Fine, R-Fla., and his family, according to the Department of Justice (DOJ). 

A copy of the message separately obtained by Fox News Digital shows Miller allegedly called Fine and his family "Nazi f—-s" and said he would burn their house down, pledging he would "never stop until your head is hanging from the rooftops of the White House." His message ended with "DEATH TO RANDY FINE AND DEATH TO DONALD TRUMP."

Miller was charged with interstate transmission of a threat to injure by the U.S. Attorney in the Middle District of Florida and faces up to five years in prison if convicted, the DOJ said.

The incident was investigated by the FBI and the Brevard County Sheriff's Office with assistance from the Secret Service and Capitol Police, the DOJ said.

"It was so graphic. It says, 'I'm gonna murder you. I'm going to cut your head off. I won't stop,'" Fine told Fox News Digital. "I reported it immediately. I unfortunately have learned what the difference is between a nasty message and a death threat, and this clearly was a death threat."

The full message read: "Dear fat--- piece of s---stain, I cannot wait to take a trip to you lovely home and light the whole place on fire and murder you and your entire family in the middle of the night while you sleep. I hope you disgusting Nazi f---s sleep with one eye open for the rest of your life because I will NEVER stop until your head is hanging from the rooftops of the White House. You deserve 10000% to be beheaded and have your body paraded through the streets. DEATH TO RANDY FINE AND DEATH TO DONALD TRUMP!!"

Fine said he received the threat via email on the morning of primary Election Day in the Sunshine State. He also said it reinforced his belief that federal officials need more protection.

"I don't know what this person's motives were for writing this, but it's someone not from Florida. So, you know, this was not a local constituent that was upset," he said. "I do think members of Congress need more security than we oftentimes get."

"I'm incredibly grateful to the U.S. attorney, the FBI, the Capitol Police, and all the law enforcement in Florida who took this seriously. The bottom line is, don't do this. Don't write messages like this to elected officials, Republican or Democrat. You want to call us bad people? Be my guest, but do not do this sort of thing," Fine said.
