WILMINGTON, NC (WECT) - A post on the WECT Facebook page has prompted the Secret Service to investigate.

Underneath a story about a man being arrested for threatening the President during the Democratic National Convention, Robbie Matheson wrote something that has some officials on alert.

Matheson's Facebook page indicates he is the manager of New Hanover Regional EMS. The hospital confirms Matheson is an employee.

Authorities at the Wilmington office of the Secret Service tell WECT they were alerted to the post and are sending the information to higher officials.
