United States First Lady Michelle Obama has reportedly received a death threat from a police officer, who worked as a motorcycle escort for White House officials and visiting dignitaries. The Washington D C police are investigating a metro police officer for making alleged comments.
“We received an allegation that inappropriate comments were made. We are currently investigating the nature of those comments,” according to a statement released from the DC metro police department.
The officer works as a motorcycle escort with the agency, but he has been placed on administrative duty as reported by The Washington Post. The officer allegedly made the comments as several officers from the special operations division discussed threats against President Barack Obama. It was not immediately clear where the alleged conversation took place or exactly how many officers took part in the conversation. During that conversation, the officials said, the officer allegedly said he would shoot the First Lady and then used his phone to retrieve a picture of the firearm he said he would use. It was not immediately clear what type of firearm was allegedly shown. It is so sad that he is on the streets “to protect and to serve.”
