In light of the FBI raid of former President Trump’s home in Florida, we’re getting word of an attack on an FBI office in Ohio.

Trump said the feds had broken into a safe at his home to search for documents that the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) want.

The agents seized a total of 15 boxes of classified information, but the agents did not elaborate on what they contained.

In Cincinnati, a man attempted to break into an FBI building on Thursday morning. Officers of the Ohio State Highway Patrol exchanged fire.

The Cincinnati FBI posted:

“At approximately 9 AM this morning an armed subject attempted to breach the Visitor Screening Facility at #FBI Cincinnati. After an alarm and a response by FBI special agents, the subject fled north onto Interstate 71.”

A suspect reportedly fired at police from a cornfield after driving away from the scene, according to NBC 15 News. Interstate I-71 North was shut down as a result. A team of FBI negotiators has also arrived on the scene.

WLWT was informed by FBI field office officials in Cincinnati that the situation began after the armed man arrived at the office and made threats.

According to News Journal, “Police scanner traffic indicates that Ohio State Highway Patrol troopers are currently pursuing a person who somehow tried to break into the FBI building in Cincinnati.”

Troopers are discussing using stop sticks and have “long guns” out as they pursue a northbound white Ford Crown Victoria sedan. The suspect just passed the I-71 Wilmington Road exit and troopers are positioned at I-71 and SR 73 and at I-71 and US 68.

11:23 FBI officers are on the scene and an FBI helicopter is landing. No other scanner chatter to report nor additional info of note from reporter at scene.

11:48 a.m.: Incident is ongoing. Clinton County EMA reports that earlier in incident, multiple shots fired by both suspect and officers. The suspect is wearing body armor, originally was wearing an orange shirt, now wearing a gray shirt. I-71 closed both directions between SR 68 and SR 73.

12:02 [EST]: Red Cross staged near scene.

“Blood splatter on his shorts. Right thigh area,” a police helicopter officer reported over the radio. “Part of windshield shot out … Suspect on knees, holding rifle.”

“Rifle down for the moment. He is on his knees.”

As of late Thursday morning, all buildings within a 1-mile radius of the suspect’s location are in lockdown.

A reporter at WLWT posted on Twitter:

“HAPPENING NOW IN CLINTON CO: Lockdown. Please stay inside and lock your doors.”

“CONFIRMED:
The situation in Clinton Co is tied an earlier threat at the FBI building in Cincinnati. FBI building is no longer a threat. Suspect armed with a gun was at the building. There was a pursuit that has now lead to the Clinton Co situation which is still unfolding.”

Democrats on social media are attempting to blame conservatives for the alleged attack despite the fact that leftists attacked and even killed police for two years during a period of unrest while Trump was in office.

According to a new account of the Monday operation at Mar-a-Lago, Eric Trump revealed that FBI agents refused to hand over the search warrant for the property raid, as well as going into parts of the property they shouldn’t have been in.

The FBI would not give Trump’s lawyer, Christina Bobb, a copy of the search warrant, but “showed it to her from about 10 feet away,” according to Eric. Additionally, he said he would be “thrilled” to learn whether the search was justified.

A copy of the warrant was given to Bobb by the police, she told The New York Times a day earlier, though.

As of now, Bobb said the supporting documents for the warrant are sealed, but Trump’s team has yet to decide whether to take the case to court so they can see the justification for the raid.

“It was very, I would say, thin, and as you can tell, it went from public records,” Bobb said in an interview with Real America’s Voice on Tuesday. “The affidavit, the supporting documentation of what the probable cause was to obtain the warrant, has been sealed, so we’re not allowed to see that. We have to go to court to request the judge to release that, which may or may not happen.”

In an interview with Daily Mail, the former president’s son said the 30 agents who arrived at the property requested that the cameras be turned off – but the staff refused.

Since the security cameras weren’t turned off, Eric says he has proof the FBI raided areas of the property where they ‘shouldn’t have been.’

Additionally, the attorney was forced to wait at the edge of the driveway when the search took place inside. They broke into the safe with safe crackers, he said.

‘There’s 30 agents there,’ he recalled on Monday during a call with the Mail. ‘They told our lawyer… you have to leave the property right now. Turn off all security cameras.’

Former President Trump further reacted to the raid on his social media platform Truth Social.

He stated that “In early June, the DOJ and FBI asked my legal representatives to put an extra lock on the door leading to the place where boxes were stored in Mar-a-Lago – We agreed.”

They were shown the secured area, and the boxes themselves. Then on Monday, without notification or warning, an army of agents broke into Mar-a-Lago, went to the same storage area, and ripped open the lock that they had asked to be installed. A surprise attack, POLITICS, and all the while our Country is going to HELL!
