A 30-year-old man from Dover named Tyler Anderson has been arrested and charged with threatening to kill Indian American Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy as well as the attendees at a campaign event in Portsmouth, New Hampshire. According to the charging documents, Anderson received a text message from Ramaswamy’s campaign notifying him of a political event in Portsmouth, New Hampshire.

Anderson responded to the text message on Dec 8, stating: “Great, another opportunity for me to blow his brains out!” and “I’m going to kill everyone who attends and then f*** their corpses.”

The US attorney’s office did not name which presidential campaign was targeted, but Ramaswamy’s team confirmed on Monday that he was the target, as reported by The Washington Post.

Tricia McLaughlin, a spokesperson for the Ramaswamy campaign, said on Monday, “Unfortunately it is true. We are grateful to law enforcement for their swiftness and professionalism in handling this matter and pray for the safety of all Americans.”
