A suspect in the vile, racist death threats against New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani has been busted in Texas and hauled back to the Big Apple for a Thursday court hearing on hate and terroristic-threat charges, according to authorities and sources.
Jeremy Fistel, 44, will be arraigned in Queens court on Thursday after being taken into custody in Plano last week over the vile messages threatening to blow up Mamdani’s car, sources told The Post.
