A West Virginia man is behind bars after police say he allegedly posted videos online threatening to kill supporters of President Donald Trump and ICE agents. 

Troopers with the Harrison County sector of the West Virginia police received information regarding a “threats complaint” from the local county sheriff’s department on Jan. 19, according to a criminal complaint obtained by WBOY. 

While investigating the claim, troopers learned that 20-year-old Cody Smith “posted videos of himself” in which he told viewers “he was going to attack and kill ICE agents” while contacting the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS), the complaint reportedly said. 

He also allegedly threatened the DHS employee who answered his call, according to WDTV.

Authorities began looking into Smith’s online activity, and later discovered previous social media posts in which Smith allegedly made claims of violence against individuals outside of law enforcement officials. 

In the videos, Smith allegedly said he intended to “murder Trump supporters and or war supporters, or service members willing to ‘bootlick,’” while also going on to threaten Trump directly, WBOY reported. 

Smith was subsequently arrested and charged with making terroristic threats, according to the outlet.

He is currently being held in the North Central Regional Jail, where his bond has been set at $75,000, according to court records obtained by Fox News Digital. 

Fox News Digital was unable to immediately locate an attorney representing Smith. The Harrison County Prosecutor’s Office did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital’s request for comment. 

The news comes after authorities announced a West Virginia librarian is facing one charge of making a terroristic threat after she allegedly posted videos online looking to recruit assassins with the hopes of targeting Trump.

Morgan L. Morrow of Ripley, West Virginia, was arrested Sunday in connection to what police said was a “social media recruitment of individuals to pursue and assassinate President Trump,” according to the Jackson County Sheriff’s Department. 

The announcement came after Libs of TikTok posted a video reportedly published by the Jackson County Public Library employee, reportedly captioned, “Surely a sniper with a terminal illness cannot be a big ask out of 343 million.”

On Sunday evening, the Jackson County Public Library condemned Morrow’s alleged statements in a post to social media.
