During a raid on Wednesday morning, Federal Bureau of Investigation agents fatally shot a man in Utah who was under investigation for threats against US President Joe Biden, with no further identification.
The FBI agents attempted to enter a home in Provo, according to Salt Lake City NBC television affiliate, KSL.
The investigation began in April and the Secret Service was alerted in June, anonymous officials told ABC News.
