Who is Tyler Anderson?

Tyler Anderson, a 30-year-old from Dover, threatened to kill Mr. Ramaswamy, a businessman and Republican presidential candidate, and attendees of a campaign event planned on Monday in nearby Portsmouth.

What did Tyler Anderson do?

The Justice Department announced the arrest of a New Hampshire man on Monday, charging him with threatening to kill Vivek Ramaswamy and his supporters.

Prosecutors said Tyler Anderson, 30, of Dover, threatened to kill Mr. Ramaswamy, a businessman and Republican presidential candidate, as well as attendees at a campaign event scheduled for Monday in nearby Portsmouth.

According to images of the texts included in court documents, the threats were made in response to an automated campaign message inviting Mr. Anderson to attend the event. His messages alluded to the threat being carried out with a firearm.

According to an affidavit filed in federal court in New Hampshire, Mr. Anderson was arrested on Saturday after federal agents tracked the texts to his phone and home address. The police also seized several firearms and recovered the threatening text messages from Mr. Anderson’s phone’s deleted folder.

According to the affidavit, Mr. Anderson admitted sending the threats in an interview with an F.B.I. agent after his arrest, and that he had also sent similar messages to other campaigns. Another federal agent discovered similar texts sent to a different presidential campaign. Mr. Anderson was charged with transmitting threats on one count.

The Dover Police Department also told federal agents that they “had an interaction with Anderson on Oct. 20,” and that they had other encounters with Anderson in 2022 and 2011. The department declined to comment further on these incidents, referring inquiries to federal prosecutors.

Reactions from Dover Police Department

In a statement on Monday, the Ramaswamy campaign thanked law enforcement “for their swiftness and professionalism in handling this matter.”

The statement then criticized the news media, “deranged voices” and “left-wing cranks,” accusing the groups of inciting violence against Republicans.

Mr. Anderson faces a maximum of five years in prison, three years of supervised release, and a fine of $250,000 if convicted. He appeared in federal court on Monday in Concord, the state capital, before returning to temporary detention. Additional hearings in the case are scheduled for Thursday.
