A teenager in Ireland has handed himself into police after an incident of serious racial abuse.
Wright tweeted to his fans on Monday screenshots of the awful abuse.
The horrible messages included things like “f****** monkey”, and “C*** c*** monkey n*****”, and some threats were specifically violent, where the offender threatened to put Wright “on his death bed”.
But on Tuesday night, the Irish police claimed that the teen handed himself in.
The statement read: “An Garda Siochana is investigating an incident where abusive/racist comments have been re-posted on social media platforms.
“No formal complaint has been received but an investigation has commenced into the comments in line with our diversity and integration Strategy.
“A male adult teenager has presented voluntarily at a Garda Station and has been interviewed.
“A file is now being prepared for the Director of Public Prosecutions.
“An Garda Siochana are appealing to the public not to engage in social media commentary in relation to this matter.”
The exact tweet is too graphic to post here, but the censored screenshots are posted below.
“I know I’m not meant to look at them but these messages still hit me so hard man. This is a child!!!” Wright tweeted.
