The FBI said its agents shot and killed a Utah man on Wednesday during a raid that a source said targeted the man for allegedly making threats against U.S. President Joe Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris and law enforcement officials.
The FBI in Salt Lake City said the shooting occurred early on Wednesday as agents attempted to serve arrest and search warrants at a residence in Provo, south of Salt Lake City.
The FBI did not identify the man or say why it was seeking an arrest. "The FBI takes all shooting incidents involving our agents or task force members seriously," it said in a statement, adding that the incident was under review.
A federal complaint shared with Reuters by the U.S. Attorney's Office for Utah named the suspect as Craig Robertson. He posted in September calling for the assassination of Biden and Harris, the complaint shows.
