An individual who appeared in a viral TikTok video threatening to “hunt down ICE agents” is now claiming his account was hacked following a strong response from the Department of Homeland Security (DHS).
In the video, which circulated widely on social media, the person allegedly made violent threats toward Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents. The DHS responded to the post with a message reading, “We will see you cowards soon,” signaling that the incident was being taken seriously by federal authorities.
Shortly after, the individual released a statement denying responsibility for the post, saying:
“So rumors going all over social media about a recent video post that was posted off my TikTok and Instagram. I did not post that video or the caption on that video. My account was hacked. If you received any messages from me from anywhere, that wasn’t me.”
It remains unclear whether the claim of a hack has been verified. Authorities have not yet announced any charges or further details regarding the investigation.
