Corey Pritchett Jr., 26, was charged on Dec. 26 with one count of aggravated kidnapping. He is accused of taking the woman on a high-speed car ride with a second woman and threatening both of their lives, according to a criminal complaint obtained by HuffPost.

Pritchett on Friday addressed the allegations in a message to his over 600,000 followers on Instagram, writing, “Don’t worry lol I’m finna give the Details on here & in the Court of Law.”

The incident underpinning the charge allegedly took place Nov. 23 in the Houston area, with the two women telling police that they planned to ride ATVs with Pritchett and go bowling that night, according to the complaint.

But after they arrived at the bowling alley, the women thought the rapper seemed to be acting suspicious, and they asked him to leave, which he did.

At one point, Pritchett made a video call to an unknown person whose contact was saved in his phone as “Future Wife.” He asked her “if he had the perfect opportunity and was driving in the middle of nowhere and no one could hear them scream,” authorities wrote in the complaint. The person on the phone responded with a yes.

The women feared for their lives, believing they were going to be taken to a remote location to be killed, according to the complaint.

Pritchett took the women’s phones after noticing that they had been texting each other, the complaint said. Pritchett allegedly fired four to five shots out the window and pointed the firearm at the women around this time.

He then pulled over on the shoulder of the highway and ordered the women to get out the vehicle, the complaint said.

“This is your only opportunity,” they claimed Pritchett told them.

When he drove off, the two women flagged down a good Samaritan and called 911, prompting law enforcement to respond, according to the complaint. The woman stated that Pritchett had at one point told them “I’m gonna 🤬🤬🤬🤬 yall and then kill yall.”

One of the women had screenshots from a location-sharing app that police said corroborated their statements, including claims about the high speed of Pritchett’s vehicle. Authorities were unable to make contact with Pritchett, but said he indicated on social media that he was leaving the U.S. to “start a new life in Dubai.”

Pritchett flew to Qatar on a one-way ticket Dec. 9, the complaint said. According to NBC affiliate KPRC, authorities are trying to bring him back to the U.S.
 
A person claiming to be Pritchett on Instagram alleged in a post that he was flying back to Houston for a meeting on Sunday, but court records indicated that a warrant was still out for his arrest. Records did not list any defense attorneys for Pritchett, but he asserted in another social media post that he “got the best lawyer in Houston.”

The U.S. has an extradition treaty with the United Arab Emirates, meaning Pritchett could be returned to the U.S. to be arrested on the two charges of aggravated kidnapping.
