Man arrested after posting threatening online comments about Charlie Kirk vigil at UTSA, affidavit says
Xaelyn Dunbar, 19, faces terroristic threat charges after posting online threats to use a truck against about 1,000 attendees at a vigil honoring Charlie Kirk, police said.
- On September 15, San Antonio police arrested 19-year-old Xaelyn Dunbar after he allegedly posted threats about a Charlie Kirk vigil at the University of Texas at San Antonio main campus.
- The Southwest Texas Fusion Center flagged comments on the San Antonio Young Republicans Facebook page and relayed them to UTSA PD, prompting officers to conduct a welfare check.
- The arrest affidavit records explicit messages such as `This is a disgrace and I can tell you right now ima make sure this won’t be a good nor comforting vigil` and Dunbar admitted he was `being dumb` and `clowning around`, acknowledging the threats.
- Authorities charged Xaelyn Dunbar with a terroristic threat, booked him into the Bexar County Adult Detention Center on a $40,000 bond, and the vigil proceeded as scheduled.
- Amid growing concerns after Kirk’s death, the arrest follows several threats targeting vigils nationwide, including the UTSA event that drew roughly 1,000 people.
