Protip: if you're going to kill the President, don't brag about it beforehand.

(CNN) -- A man accused of making threatening statements about killing President Obama has been arrested in Nevada, the Secret Service said Saturday.

Daniel James Murray was arrested Friday night in the parking lot of the Riverside Resort Hotel and Casino in Laughlin, Nevada, said Secret Service spokesman Malcolm Wiley.

Murray recently withdrew $85,000 from a bank in St. George, Utah, in two separate visits and told a teller, "We are on a mission to kill the president of the United States," according to a criminal complaint filed in federal court in Utah.

According to the complaint, Murray opened an account at Zions First National Bank on May 19 with an $85,000 check.

"With all this mess going on under President Obama with banks and the economy, I'm sure if citizens happen to lose their money, they will rise up and we could see killing and deaths," he said, according to the complaint.

On May 27, he returned to the bank and tried to withdraw $12,000, but lacked proper identification.

"Not to be disrespectful, but if I don't get this money, someone is going to die," Murray said, according to the complaint.

A bank manager was summoned and Murray was allowed to withdraw the money without proper identification.

Murray would not accept a check and demanded bills no larger than $50, the complaint says.

"We are 94 million miles from the sun, and are in-between the sun and moon, and the eagle that flies between them and it's a giant step for mankind. ... I have traveled thousands of miles to be here and know things that are going to happen. ... the banking system will fail and people will die. ... there will be chaos in the world," Murray said, according to the complaint.

He then made his threat against the president, the complaint says.

The next day, Murray returned to the bank, withdrew the rest of his money and closed the account, a bank teller told authorities.

Ha, somebody made a similar threat on Wikipedia yesterday. Turns it was a 12-year old Canadian kid, but he was already reported to the authorities before that was revealed.
 
Insane does not begin to describe that guy.
 
Giovanni says it all.

Seriously, I'm not surprised, but this reminds me so much of that part of Huck Finn when they go to lynch that guy and the guy says, "seriously, could have been more secretive about it?"

Idiots.
 
More hilarious is that they blame a guy who's been in office not five months for it.
 
what is this i dont even


This guy's batshit insane. :|
 
Sorry, pal, but if you're trying to kill Obama, something tells me that it's for a very different reason than "he's making the banks fail." Even ignoring the fact that that's incorrect...
 
Pathetic.

Not only this guy is a insane douchebache',but has the tiniest brains. Telling people about an assanination isn't the smartest idea. :/

I bet he felt pretty smart when he was bragging about. : /
 
yeah, well the guys in my class bragging to each other about how they were going to beat me up probably don't feel to happy now either. Feeling smart and being smart are two totally different things.
