A 30-year-old New Hampshire man was arrested for allegedly threatening to kill Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy and his supporters, the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of New Hampshire announced Monday.

Investigators say that Tyler Anderson replied to a text message from the Ramaswamy campaign about an upcoming event scheduled to take place in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, writing, “Great, another opportunity for me to blow [his] brains out!” He later said he was “going to kill everyone who attends and then f— their corpses.”

A criminal complaint said law enforcement searched Anderson’s home on Saturday and discovered his phone and the alleged texts, which were deleted, along with several firearms. They used records from Verizon Wireless to ascertain that the two messages were sent from Anderson’s phone at 10:06 a.m. on Friday, just six minutes after he received the notification from Ramaswamy’s campaign.
