Arizona Man Threatens to Kill Former and Current US Leaders

A 37-year-old man from the Memphis area, Kyl Alton Hall, has been charged with making serious threats against President Joe Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris, and former President Barack Obama, according to the Justice Department. Hall allegedly posted multiple threats on social media platform X last month, expressing intentions to shoot and kill Biden, as well as to crash his plane. He also threatened to assassinate both Harris and Obama. Hall was federally indicted on Tuesday, facing two counts of threats against a sitting president and vice president, along with one count of threatening a former president. His arrest took place on July 30 in Mississippi, where he was booked by the Southaven Police Department. If convicted, Hall could face a maximum of five years in prison for each count. This incident follows a recent wave of threats against political figures, including an Arizona man who was arrested after threatening to kill former President Trump. This arrest occurred during a manhunt as Trump was visiting Arizona for an event. Additionally, a 20-year-old shooter attempted to assassinate Trump at a rally last month, resulting in the shooter's death at the hands of law enforcement. The investigation into these threats has prompted multiple U.S. Secret Service agents to be placed on leave as authorities continue to assess the security risks surrounding these high-profile individuals. Fox News Digital has sought comments from the DeSoto County Sheriff's Office and the Justice Department regarding Hall's charges.
