John Hinckley Jr., the former Texas resident who shot former President Ronald Reagan in 1981, was fully released from court restrictions on Wednesday, looking forward to launching a music career in an already sold-out concert in Brooklyn next month.
But, by midday, the venue canceled the show due to threats.
In an Instagram post, Market Hotel announced it was canceling Hinckley’s July 8 sold out show. The venue cited threats and hate directed at the community following the news of the event.
