The FBI has launched an investigation into a hunting stand discovered within the line of sight of Air Force One last Friday, raising concerns over potential security threats. This discovery was made ahead of President Trump’s visit to Palm Beach International Airport.

FBI Director Kash Patel reported that the Secret Service first identified “what appeared to be an elevated hunting stand” situated in proximity to the Air Force One landing zone. This finding prompted the Secret Service to alert the FBI to take charge of the investigation.

Patel stated, “No individuals were found at the scene. The FBI has assumed the lead in the investigation, deploying resources to gather evidence and utilizing advanced cellphone analytics capabilities.” This response underscores the seriousness with which federal agencies are treating the matter.
