A man in Memphis is facing charges of terrorism after making threatening posts on social media that caused fear among residents. The individual, identified as 24-year-old Derrick White, posted messages on Facebook under the name “Huncho Cinco,” stating his intentions to carry out a violent act similar to a recent shooting spree in the city.
White’s posts, which referenced a previous incident known as the Zeek shooting, included threats to “put that fye on everything and everybody moving.” The alarming nature of the messages prompted concerned Memphians to report them to the authorities.
