A 44-year-old man from Arizona has been taken into custody by the US Secret Service for allegedly threatening to kill former President Donald Trump.
According to court documents, the suspect, whose name has not been released, made multiple threats against Trump on social media, including a post that read, “I’m going to kill him.”
The Secret Service launched an investigation into the threats and traced them to the Arizona man’s account. Agents arrested him at his home without incident.
The suspect is currently facing charges of making threats against a former President, which carries a maximum penalty of five years in prison.
This incident highlights the ongoing concern for the safety and security of public figures, including former Presidents. The Secret Service takes all threats seriously and works tirelessly to identify and apprehend individuals who make them.
Trump has been the subject of numerous threats since leaving office, and this incident serves as a reminder of the risks faced by those in the public eye.
The investigation is ongoing, and further details about the suspect and his motives have not been released.
