CINCINNATI — An armed man decked out in body armor tried to breach a
security screening area at an FBI field office in Ohio on Thursday, then
fled and exchanged gunfire in a standoff with law enforcement, authorities
said.

The confrontation at the FBI's Cincinnati field office comes as officials
warn of an increase in threats against federal agents in the days
following a search of former President Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago estate in
Florida.

Federal officials said the man had "attempted to breach" the visitor's
screening area at the FBI office and fled when he was confronted by
agents. He was chased onto Interstate 71 and has exchanged gunfire with
police, according to the Clinton County Emergency Management Agency.

Authorities have closed the interstate in both directions as police
remained in a standoff. No injuries were immediately reported.

Officials in Ohio have locked down a mile radius near the interstate and
urged residents and business owners to lock doors and stay inside.

An FBI evidence team has arrived at the office to investigate, according
to multiple media reports.

There have been growing threats in recent days against FBI agents and
offices across the country since federal agents executed a search warrant
at Mar-a-Lago. On Gab, a social media site popular with white supremacists
and antisemites, users have warned they are preparing for an armed
revolution.

Federal officials have also been tracking an array of other concerning
chatter on Gab and other platforms threatening violence against federal
agents. FBI Director Christopher Wray denounced the threats as he visited
another FBI office in Nebraska on Wednesday.

"Violence against law enforcement is not the answer, no matter who you're
upset with," Wray said Wednesday in Omaha.

The FBI on Wednesday also warned its agents to avoid protesters and ensure
their security key cards are "not visible outside FBI space," citing an
increase in social media threats to bureau personnel and facilities. It
also warned agents to be aware of their surroundings and potential
protesters.

The warning did not specifically mention this week's search of Mar-a-Lago
but attributed the online threats to "recent media reporting on FBI
investigative activity."
