Elkview man threatens police
Authorities say an Elkview man has been arrested after posting a video on Facebook calling for police officers to be killed. Citing court records, media outlets report that 26-year-old Matthew Lane Furby was taken into custody Monday and charged with making threats of terroristic acts. Kanawha Sheriff’s Office deputies say they were alerted to a Facebook video appearing to show Furby saying “the only good cops out there are dead cops.” Deputies say Furby is also accused of encouraging people to kill police in a post on the social media site. The sheriff’s office says that Furby admitted to deputies that he made the video because he was angry with law enforcement officers.
