Right-wing podcaster Tim Pool has claimed someone “opened fire” while approaching his property in West Virginia.
In a post on X, Pool said a car approached his property on Friday night and “opened fire.” There were no injuries, Pool added. His security team is now “reviewing the incident” and will make a report to law enforcement.
In a second post, Pool said his first thought was that someone was trying to scare him. “But we have a security gate and armed guards, and it's possible this deterred something more serious,” he wrote.
Pool, who hosts The Culture War Podcast, has millions of followers across YouTube, Instagram, and X. He rose to prominence during the Occupy Wall Street movement in 2011 and during his time as a reporter with Vice.
Pool did not specify where his property is located, but his X profile lists his location as Harpers Ferry, West Virginia. The Independent has contacted Pool for comment.
