A former “incel” is facing federal charges after he allegedly threatened to shoot up “chads and stacies” at the University of Arizona in a “day of Retribution.”
Michael Pengchung Lee, 27, made the grave threats toward campus Greek life over Snapchat Sunday, warning in one message there would be a “mass tragedy and atrocity,” at the college, according to a federal complaint filed this week.
He also allegedly referenced the approaching 10-year anniversary of when mass shooter and incel, meaning “involuntary celibate,” Elliot Rodgers shot and killed six people, including members of Greek life, near UC Santa Barbara’s campus before turning the gun on himself on May 23, 2014.
Lee, who is not affiliated with the university, was arrested Monday after he was pulled over for speeding, and later admitted to making the threats, the feds alleged.
“The day of Retribution is upon us, I shall get revenge on all the chads and stacies!!” he wrote in one Snapchat message in what authorities believe is a reference to fraternity and sorority members. The FBI also believes “the day of Retribution” is tied to Rodgers’ 2014 killing spree.
