FBI agents shot and killed a man during an early morning raid Wednesday at a home in Provo, Utah, where they were executing warrants.
The agency confirmed to the Washington Examiner that special agents attempted to serve arrest and search warrants around 6:15 a.m. local time on a man who had allegedly posted threats against President Joe Biden and others, including Biden's family members, Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, and former President Barack Obama.
The incident comes as Biden is set to arrive in Utah on Wednesday afternoon for an overnight stop in Salt Lake City. He is scheduled to visit the Veterans Affairs hospital on the one-year anniversary of the PACT Act, as well as make a fundraising stop in Park City.
