President Donald Trump left for Washington from his residence-cum-resort in West Palm Beach, Florida, on Sunday afternoon. As he was departing from the Palm Beach International Airport, there was a slight inconvenience due to the Secret Service investigating a potential security threat near the airport.
Reporters travelling with the President reported that Trump had to board the Air Force One jet in a hurry to make sure that there is minimal exposure to the threat. According to the Secret Service, the threat was detected after a suspicious hunting stand with direct sight of the Air Force One’s stairs was discovered near the airport.
The US Secret Service suspected that the elevated hunting stand could be used as a sniper position to target the POTUS as he boarded the aircraft on Sunday afternoon, FBI Director Kash Patel confirmed in a statement to Fox News. So far, only “heightened security measures” have been implemented by the USSS and no arrest has been made in the case.
