A man from Mexico who was living in Dallas was arrested earlier this week after he allegedly created TikTok posts to solicit people to kill ICE agents, according to a news release Thursday from federal prosecutors. <\/p>\n

Eduardo Aguilar, 23, is facing charges for transmitting in interstate or foreign commerce a communication containing a threat following his arrest Tuesday, the release from the U.S. Department of Justice said. <\/p>\n

Aguilar made an initial appearance Wednesday afternoon before a federal magistrate judge in Dallas, according to authorities. The judge ordered that he remain in federal custody.<\/p>\n

According to court records, the Spanish social media post was published on TikTok on Oct. 9 and said \u201cI need 10 dudes in Dallas with determination (guts) who aren\u2019t afraid to [two skull emojis],\u201d according to the release. The second phrase in the same post said \u201c10K for each ICE agent.\u201d<\/p>\n
