NEW YORK (1010 WINS) -- A teenager accused of fatally stabbing a New Jersey corrections officer in an attempt to become "TikTok famous" has been arrested for allegedly threatening a driver with a BB gun in Florida, according to a report.

Zachary Thomas Latham, 18, was arrested and charged with aggravated assault in Lee County, Florida after a driver said he threatened him with a BB gun that looked like an AK-47 on Saturday night, the Fort Myers News-Press reported.


Last May, Latham was arrested after he allegedly stabbed his 51-year-old neighbor William Durham Sr. to death in Vineland, New Jersey during an argument, the outlet reported.

Latham had "posted a number of exchanges" with Durham's family on TikTok prior to the fatal stabbing, and was "obsessed with social media fame," according to the outlet. He was reportedly awaiting trial on the murder charge when he was arrested in Florida.

His attorney information wasn't immediately available Wednesday.
