Philadelphia police on Thursday identified a man they believe donned a scary Chucky-style mask and “made threatening comments” while chasing a woman near City Hall, officials said.

An arrest warrant was issued for 22-year-old Zymire Hughes with authorities believing he “may have fled Pennsylvania” while having “ties to California and Nevada,” according to a police statement.

The strange incident unfolded around 5:30 a.m. Wednesday last week, when a 40-year-old female jogger in athletic wear “was chased by a masked offender” near 1500 John F. Kennedy Blvd., Philadelphia police said.

The masked man allegedly held up a phone and repeatedly asked the fleeing woman, “Are you ready to die?” police told NBC Philadelphia.

The masked person, carrying a distinctive blue plaid backpack, was last seen ducking into the SEPTA metro train’s Suburban Station.

Investigators released video and images of the masked person who was wearing a “Chucky doll Halloween-style face mask,” Capt. Jason Smith said, referring to the killer doll from the “Child’s Play” horror movie franchise.
