Fox News is reporting that a hunting stand found with clear line of sight to presidential plane at Palm Beach International Airport. This caused President Donald Trump to board Air Force One quickly using the small stairs due to "increased security measures" at Palm Beach International Airport on Sunday. The FBI is leading the investigation into why such a stand would have been placed at this location.
President Donald Trump boarded Air Force One quickly using the small stairs due to "increased security measures" at Palm Beach International Airport on Sunday, a White House official tells Fox News.
The heightened measures at the airport follow the Secret Service discovering a suspected hunting stand Friday near the airport with a clear line of sight to Air Force One when Trump boards and departs the presidential plane.
Fox News was first to report the discovery of the potential sniper position. No individuals have been arrested.
FBI Director Kash Patel said his agency is leading the investigation.
Patel said the hunting stand has not yet been connected to any individual.
