FBI Detains Man Who Threatened Mass Shooting If Trump Wins – Report – The World

NEW YORK, November 5. /TASS/. The FBI has detained a man who threatened mass shootings if Republican candidate Donald Trump wins the US presidential election, ABC reports, citing FBI documents.

According to the report, the man named Isaac Sissel, 25, had been posting threats to mass shoot conservative Christians if Trump won the election. After being detained, he claimed that Trump was a “threat (…) that should have been assassinated” and that “everything would be better if Trump were dead.”

The FBI detained him in Canton, Michigan, but he has not yet been charged. Law enforcement has multiple warrants out for his arrest on charges of stalking and harassment.

The US holds elections on November 5, with voters electing the president, governors of 11 states and two US territories, a third of the Senate and all members of the House of Representatives. Republican nominee Donald Trump, who served as president from 2017 to 2021, is running against Democratic nominee Kamala Harris, who has been vice president since January 2021. Trump, after losing the 2020 election to Joe Biden, is seeking a comeback at the White House. .
