MINNEAPOLIS (WJON News) -- The Minnesota chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations is holding a news conference after what they say a series of threatening phone calls were made from St. Cloud.

CAIR-MN will join leaders of the Dar Al-Qalam Islamic Center Tuesday at noon to urge law enforcement to investigate a series of threatening phone calls directed at the mosque as hate crimes.

Over the past few days, the mosque has received more than 14 phone calls from a St. Cloud-based phone number. The caller has left voicemails containing veiled threats and anti-muslim slurs.
