Disturbing Accusations About MN Man Who Triggered Amber Alert

Information about the Minnesota man who triggered an AMBER alert this week is starting to trickle out on social media. One X user shared some screenshots of a text they received from Joseph Bragg, and some disturbing accusations.

Minnesota Man Tied To AMBER Alert

On Wednesday night, an AMBER alert was sent out to Minnesotans as a 7-year-old from Zimmerman didn't make it home after school. The missing child galvanized the community as hundreds of Minnesotans came together to look for the child, including going door to door, and even heading out onto area lakes to knock on fish house doors.

The child was found safe in Albert Lea early Thursday morning with 28-year-old Joseph Bragg behind the wheel of the car that the child was in. Since his arrest, information about Bragg has been hard to come by, but one woman on X has made some accusations and shared an alleged text sent by Bragg to her about babysitting.

"His behavior is fundamentally disturbing"

X user @901lulu posted about the arrest and made some accusations that, if true, paint a picture of a man who was looking for 'access' to kids by seeking out single moms and offering to babysit.

The post on X has been retweeted more than 400 times and has been seen by 75,000 individuals.

Bragg is currently being held in the Sherburne County Jail on pending Felony kidnapping charges. He is expected to be formally charged in the near future.

Information in this story was taken from X, and Bragg is considered innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
