DAYTON, Ohio —
A man from Dayton was arrested by the FBI Friday morning, accused of threatening to "organize mobs" to kill thousands in Cincinnati.
The threat, which included racist language, was reported by Cincinnati police to the FBI.
According to the FBI, Scott Michael Hanna, 30, from Dayton, allegedly posted on social media on July 31, 2025, saying he was "organizing mobs to kill people in Cincinnati."
It comes in the wake of the downtown brawl that has sparked national attention.
The post goes on to state he was aiming to kill “30k” by Sunday to "cleanse the city of blacks."
“The FBI aggressively investigates those who threaten our communities with violence,” stated FBI Cincinnati Special Agent in Charge Elena Iatarola. “Threats like this impact the entire community and have serious consequences.”
Charging documents state Cincinnati police reported the post to the FBI’s Joint Terrorism Task Force, who was then able to trace the post to Hanna.
Hanna is known to police, having been involved in a "menacing incident" at his home in September.
According to the FBI, Hanna called police and "threatened to cut off an individual’s head."
Officials said Hanna "had swung a full-sized sword at a victim’s neck, resulting in serious injury and what appeared to be a partial decapitation."
When law enforcement responded, Hanna started yelling and screaming at an officer "calling him a racial slur."
WLWT is working to learn any charges Hanna faced in that incident and where the case stands.
Hanna is charged with making an interstate communication with a threat to injure. If convicted he faces up to five years in prison.
He is scheduled to appear in U.S. District Court in Dayton at 2:30 p.m. Friday
