LAS VEGAS (KSNV) \u2014 The man accused of wearing a mask to terrorize Philadelphia residents appeared in a Las Vegas courtroom Thursday morning.<\/p>\n
A judge asked 22-year-old Zymire Hughes if he understood the two waivers of extradition from Pennsylvania that he signed. <\/p>\n
Hughes answered that he did as he held a piece of paper up to his face. The judge gave authorities from Pennsylvania 30 days to extradite him.<\/p>\n
The U.S. Marshals Service said Hughes was wanted by Philadelphia Police for “terrorizing citizens” in the Center City neighborhood.<\/p>\n
Police accused him of approaching multiple people while wearing a mask similar to the horror character Chucky. In one instance, he allegedly chased a jogger, asking her “Do you want to die?”<\/p>\n
The Nevada Violent Offender Task Force arrested him in Las Vegas earlier this week. He remains held at the Clark County Detention Center.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"LAS VEGAS (KSNV) \u2014 The man accused of wearing a mask to terrorize Philadelphia residents appeared in a…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":273779,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[69,71,70],"class_list":["post-273778","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-philadelphia","tag-philadelphia","tag-philadelphia-headlines","tag-philadelphia-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/273778","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=273778"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/273778\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/273779"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=273778"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=273778"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=273778"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
