“Thursday night at about 10:30 or 10 o’clock, I received a message … letting me know that there were dangerous people looking for me because they wanted to kill me,” the Meridian city councilman and candidate for mayor claimed in a video statement Monday. It’s a police officer who wants to kill him, he added.
