A livestreamer known for posting videos with racist content online appeared in court Friday morning on charges including attempted murder after a shooting outside a Tennessee courthouse.
Dalton Eatherly, who goes by “Chud the Builder” online, was taken into custody after a confrontation with another man, who authorities have not named, escalated into a shooting outside the Montgomery County Courthouse in Clarksville on Wednesday, the Tennessee District Attorney General’s Office said.
Eatherly, 28, faces additional charges including employing a firearm during a dangerous felony, aggravated assault, and reckless endangerment with a deadly weapon, the Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office said.
During his arraignment and bond hearing, General Session Court Judge Reid Poland III set a $1.25 million bond, “based upon the fact of how many people were in the courtyard over here at the courthouse and the seriousness of all these felonies.”
