A Texas man is accused of making terroristic threats against New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani , the Queens District Attorney's Office announced Thursday.
Prosecutors say 44-year-old Jeremy Fistel, of Plano, Texas, threatened the Queens assemblyman on multiple occasions between June and July of this year in the form of voicemails and a written message.
Fistel was arrested on Sept. 11 in Texas and was arraigned on a 22-count indictment Thursday at Queens Criminal Court. He pleaded not guilty to several charges, including four counts of making a terroristic threat as a hate crime.
