Man Accused Of Threatening To Kill Trump May Be In DC: Report

WASHINGTON, DC -- A Pennsylvania man accused of threatening to kill a prosecutor and President Trump could be in D.C., or at least the general area, according to a report.

WTOP reports that the U.S. Marshals are offering a $20,000 reward for information leading to the arrest of 27-year-old Richard Christy, who police believe to be armed and dangerous.

Christy is wanted on numerous other charges, including burglary, violating his probation, and failure to appear in court, according to the report.

He had a federal warrant issued against him on June 19 after being accused of making Facebook threats against a district attorney in Pennsylvania, allegedly saying, "I promise I'll put a bullet in [the district attorney's] head as soon as I put one in the head of President Donald J. Trump."

Christy reportedly was spotted Sunday sleeping in a vehicle in Cumberland, Md., but he fled shortly after.

Search underway for Shawn Christy. Federal authorities say he's made threats to the President and other officials. Considered armed & dangerous. May have been spotted in Cumberland, MD yesterday, believed to be driving stolen GMC Sierra truck/PA tags: ZGL2845. Call 911. @fox5dc pic.twitter.com/PEZvtuw6mu
