Caller threatens to kill Hot 97.1FM ‘AM Mayhem’ hosts on air
Alex âKubiyashiâ Barnwell has called on the police to look into a caller who has, for the last few days, been calling into Hot 97.1 FMâs AM Mayhem morning show and making death threats to both him and Chris â2 Coolâ Jonesâ.
The caller could be heard on radio saying âI will shoot youâ.
In some instances, the person, who sounds like a male, states when he will shoot the hosts and where.{{more}} This has been going on for some time now.
Yesterday morning, Barnwell said that he is calling on the authorities to look into the threats that are being made live on air, as employees of the station are now taking the caller seriously.
âGod spare my life, I am calling on the authorities to do something. I will make a follow-up phone call and I am calling on the CID to visit and follow up,â said Barnwell, live on air, noting also that persons at the station are scared, although some of them carry licensed firearms.
Soon after Barnwell made the plea, the caller phoned in and made the threat once again.(LC)
