In the US state of Iowa, an armed man was arrested who was planning to assassinate US President Joe Biden, ex-President Barack Obama and Facebook (Meta) founder Mark Zuckerberg. Writes about this TV channel NBC.
The detainee is a 25-year-old supermarket worker in California, Kuachua Brillion Xiong, who is now in prison. The authorities accused the man of threatening the former US president.
He was caught after a routine inspection by a road patrol: an AR-15 rifle, ammunition, loaded magazines, body armor and first aid kits were found in the man's car. According to the criminal, he planned to go to the White House “to kill people in power.” Xiong also showed investigators a drawing of the building and stated that he had a “weak point.”
“He said that if released from custody, he would immediately continue on his way to the White House and do everything possible to fulfill the plan. Xiong said he was not going to return to California because he plans to die fighting evil demons in the White House, ”the court document said, quoted by the channel.
