Houston police have issued an arrest warrant for Corey Pritchett Jr., a popular YouTuber, after he allegedly kidnapped two women following a trip to a bowling center in Houston in late November 2024.
The 26-year-old influencer is accused of threatening and holding the women against their will before fleeing the country.
According to a criminal complaint, Pritchett invited the two women to join him for a ride on ATVs before heading to the bowling center.
After meeting two of his friends, Pritchett and his companions reportedly became suspicious, claiming that a rival group was at the bowling alley.
Later, Pritchett allegedly drove the women to a location, where he threatened them with a gun and warned that no one would hear or find them.

During the tense encounter, Pritchett allegedly called a woman saved as “Future Wife” in his phone and discussed killing the women.
The two victims were eventually released unharmed on the side of the road, but investigators were unable to reach Pritchett after the incident.
Police learned through his social media accounts that Pritchett had flown to Dubai after purchasing a one-way flight to Qatar.
The FBI is involved in the investigation as authorities attempt to track him down.
Pritchett, who has 3.9 million subscribers on YouTube, shared several videos online claiming the kidnapping accusations were false and that he had been “set up.”
While he posted about enjoying life in Dubai, his current whereabouts remain unclear.
Pritchett is facing two counts of aggravated kidnapping, and his location remains a key focus of the ongoing investigation.
