Manhunt Intensifies In Threat To Wilton Manors LGBTQs

NBC South Florida reports:

A man accused of making online threats against members of Wilton Manors’ gay community in the past is now a wanted man in an alleged stalking case. A warrant has been issued for Craig Jungwirth after he was a no-show for a court appearance on a stalking charge, records showed. Wilton Manors Police said Jungwirth’s whereabouts were unknown, but they received information that he may be in Broward.

Jungwirth is notorious in Wilton Manors’ LGBTQ+ circles, and well known to police. He’s been accused of making an online threat to carry out a Pulse Nightclub-style shooting there, and police say he was on surveillance vandalizing a restaurant. Activists in Wilton Manors’ gay community were going business to business Thursday, posting wanted flyers with Jungwirth’s photo on them.

Police are asking attendees at this weekend’s Wilton Manors Pride to be on the alert for Jungwirth’s presence.

In a video report at the link above, a local man says Jungwirth recently threatened to “come and kill me at 4PM” at the man’s barber shop.

My many reports on Jungwirth going back to 2016 can be viewed here. Yesterday’s report is here.

As I noted yesterday, many of Wilton Manors’ dozens of LGBTQ businesses have posted warnings to their social media accounts, as has the Wilton Manors Police Department.
