Ramsey Khalid Ismael, 24, commonly known by his online alias, “Johnny Somali,” has been indicted of causing a “commotion” at a convenience store, Seoul prosecutors confirmed to CNN. If convicted he faces up to five years in prison.
A departure ban has also been placed on Ismael, preventing him from leaving the country while authorities continue their investigation, CNN affiliate MBC News reported.
CNN has reached out to Ismael for comment. It is unclear if he has an attorney.

American eh? Nope, I don't recognize him. Do what you want with that one, it's fine by us.
How can he be American if he has Israel and Somalia in his names?

Nah he is clearly from Greenland or maybe Tahiti.
