A TikTok video from a creator named Danesh, who uses the handle @thatdaneshguy, details an incident in Apache, Oklahoma. The video begins with a woman walking in the morning when a man in a grey GMC Canyon pickup truck allegedly begins tailing her and trying to get her attention. According to the video, the woman looked back and perceived the man was laughing at her, so she continued her walk.
The footage appears to show the man driving up to the woman again. According to the video, she then turns and gives him the middle finger. According to the video, this action “gets him set off.” The man in the truck is then heard saying, “I wasn’t even talking to you. I was talking to my biker friend.”
The woman filming responds, “Uh-huh.” The man then allegedly threatens, “I’m gonna have my wife come beat your ass.” As the truck drives away, the woman says, “Yeah, and that’s why I’m calling the cops on you, you little b—-.”
Reporter says he identified the man and found dating profiles
The video then cuts to the reporter, who says he identified the man as Ricky Josie of Apache, Oklahoma. He displays a screenshot of a Facebook profile with the name Ricky Josie, which shows a location of Sydney, Australia, but the reporter states he “easily figured that out.” The profile also indicates the subject is married.
According to the video, the reporter continues, saying he decided to “personally look into Ricky” and was glad the man brought up his wife during the encounter. He then shows what he claims are dating site profiles for the man. One profile, from a general dating site, features a photo and states the user is a 60-year-old man from Lawton, Oklahoma. Another profile, from a site called BikerPlanet, lists a username and describes the user as an “old fat biker.”
According to the video, the BikerPlanet profile identifies the user as Caucasian, yet the username is an offensive slur. According to the video’s creator, he advises the man to “rush home” to collect his belongings, implying his wife might react to the discovery of the dating profiles. According to the video, the reporter concludes by suggesting the wife “could do better with someone who respects you.”
According to the video’s creator, the video’s caption reads, “Violent man assaults woman over middle finger @Monica Reyes.”
Comments on the video include a claim from the woman involved
The comment section on the video includes a statement from a user claiming to be the woman in the video. The comment reads, “I AM THE ONE IN THE VIDEO IM MONICA I DID CALL COPS THEY DID NOTHING SO I PUSHED IT AND I TALKED TO DETECTIVE TODAY FINALY TO PRESS CHARGES THEY ARE GONNA TRY TO FIND HIM AND THEN SAID SEE IF THE DA WANTS TO TAKE IT AND PRESS CHARGES!!!”
Other comments on the video include, “why do they always look like this,” “omg. hes so gross,” and “Why don’t the police want to do more when evidence is shown to them.” Another comment states, “Attempted murder,” while a different user writes, “This made me lol. As always, appreciate your investigative work!”
