According to law enforcement the structure described as an “elevated hunting stand” was found on Friday in a wooded area overlooking the airport’s runway. It was close enough to the flight path that the Secret Service altered the President’s normal boarding routine for his return trip to Washington.
As reported by Daily Mail, FBI Director Kash Patel said the agency had “taken the investigatory lead, flying in resources to collect all evidence from the scene and deploying our cell phone analytics capabilities.” He added that the stand was located “within sight line of the Air Force One landing zone.”

Authorities said no ammunition or weapons were discovered nearby and the object appeared to be an “odd collection of pipes.” Secret Service spokesman Anthony Guglielmi told Fox News that “there was no impact to any movements and no individuals were present or involved at the location” adding that the incident highlighted “the importance of our layered security measures.”
Trump’s son Eric praised the Secret Service for their vigilance writing on X “Ps the Secret Service did a GREAT job finding this.”
The investigation remains ongoing but the incident comes amid a series of recent security threats against the President. Less than a month ago Ryan Routh was convicted for plotting to assassinate Trump at his West Palm Beach golf club. Another attempt occurred during a campaign rally in Butler Pennsylvania last year.
