A Utah man was fatally shot Wednesday morning during an FBI raid in Salt Lake City, an FBI source told ABC News.
Special agents were trying to issue arrest and search warrants at a Provo residence when they shot and killed Craig Robertson at about 6:15 a.m.
An FBI official said the raid was related to an investigation into alleged threats against President Joe Biden and other figures, according to ABC.
The threats involved plans to take physical action and the FBI deemed them “credible.”
The investigation began in April and the US secret services became aware of it in June.
“The FBI takes seriously all shooting incidents involving our agents or task force members,” the FBI said in a statement to ABC.
“In accordance with FBI policy, the shooting incident is being reviewed by the FBI’s inspection division. As this is an ongoing matter, we have no further details to provide.’
