Texas Man Accused of Threatening Pride Parade After Kirk Shooting
A 42-year-old Texas man, Joshua Cole, has been arrested and charged with threatening to shoot up the Abilene Pride Parade. According to the FBI, Cole made specific threats on Facebook, motivated by the recent assassination of right-wing activist Charlie Kirk. Cole was arrested a day later and admitted to operating the Facebook account but claimed he did not intend to carry out the threats. He is currently being held before trial and faces a potential five-year prison sentence if found guilty.
