The FBI thwarted an explosive drone attack against Sunday’s UFC Freedom 250 event on the White House South Lawn and have already taken five suspects into custody, it was revealed Tuesday.
The multi-phase terror attack allegedly involved using explosive-laden drone aircraft to strike buildings in the vicinity of the event, sparking mass panic and driving the fleeing crowd toward a sniper team poised to pick them off, officials told Fox News Digital.
A “second wave” of attackers then allegedly planned to storm the White House gate, officials said.
The bureau learned of the plot on June 10 and executed a search warrant in Cincinnati, where the first arrest was made.
