"This is a disgrace and I can tell you right now ima make sure this won’t be a good nor comforting vigil yall watch and see. Ima make this a movie … me and my truck."
Authorities identified the suspect as Xaelyn Dunbar, who now faces a charge of making a terroristic threat. He is being held in the Bexar County Jail on a $40,000 bond, reports Fox News.
The threats appeared on Sept. 15 under a Facebook post from the San Antonio Young Republicans, which was promoting the campus vigil. The event later drew about 1,000 people in honor of Kirk, the Turning Point USA founder who was assassinated days earlier while speaking at Utah Valley University.
According to an arrest affidavit cited by the San Antonio Express-News, Dunbar allegedly wrote: “This is a disgrace and I can tell you right now ima make sure this won’t be a good nor comforting vigil yall watch and see. Ima make this a movie … me and my truck.”
When another Facebook user pushed back, he reportedly doubled down: “You’ll see tmr I jus wouldn’t advise tryna stop a Ford 250 Diesel truck. Show yall how much Charlie really means.”
The comments were flagged by the Southwest Texas Fusion Center, which monitors threats for the San Antonio Police Department. UTSA police were alerted, and city officers teamed up with Universal City police to track Dunbar to his apartment complex on the northeast side.
Dunbar admitted to posting the messages, according to the affidavit. He told officers he was “being dumb” and “clowning around,” adding: “Even if I’m 19 years old, that doesn’t mean I won’t still act like a kid.”
Asked if he thought the threats were worth criminal charges, Dunbar allegedly responded: “If that’s what it takes, I did what I did, and I can take the consequences.” The planned vigil went ahead without incident.
