Amid post-election buzz in the US, several American cities have seen protesters flock to the street, as the two candidates, Donald Trump and Joe Biden, clash in a fight for those last votes remaining in key battleground states.
An investigation has been launched by the FBI into reports of a man using social media to make threats of a mass shooting in the event that Democratic candidate Joe Biden wins the vote for the White House, Fox 5 DC reported.
The Los Angeles Times reported that the suspect had been arrested by members of a joint task force of federal and local law enforcement officers. The Times cited sources familiar with the investigation, saying that a mental health diagnosis could be used to detain the man.
Democratic U.S. presidential nominee Joe Biden makes a statement on the 2020 U.S. presidential election results during a brief appearance before reporters in Wilmington, Delaware, U.S., November 5, 2020.
The alleged suspect was reportedly taken into custody by the CT6 group, described as a unit dealing with domestic terror threats.
Tensions have escalated around the outcome of the heated presidential race, after 3 November Election Day, as votes from several key battleground states are still being counted. Waiting on the results, residents in many US cities, including Washington DC, New York City, Philadelphia and others, have taken to the street.
