JAKARTA - Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) of the United States, Kash Patel, will completely overhaul the security arrangements for President Donald Trump in the next reception with White House reporters.
This was done as a security anticipation after the shooting incident during a dinner for White House journalists with American government officials, Saturday (25/4).
"His security posture, I think, will be completely different," Patel told Fox News, quoted by ANTARA from Sputnik, Monday, April 27.
The FBI will implement things differently and will work with the White House, the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Secret Service, and local police.
"There were almost all members of the presidential cabinet at the banquet. There was the president and the vice president, as well as 2,000 media people. This is not a written event for a movie, a scenario like this, a tragedy like this; and fortunately, there was a quick reaction from law enforcement," said Patel.
Saturday night, gunfire suddenly sounded at the Hilton Hotel in Washington, United States, during the White House correspondent's annual dinner.
Everyone who was present at the event, including Donald Trump and his wife, was immediately evacuated.
Meanwhile, a suspect in the shooting was immediately detained, but one of the Secret Service agents was injured. The suspect is known as Cole Allen, who often criticizes the US government for being reluctant to provide assistance to Ukraine.
As a result of the incident, Trump said the dinner would still be rescheduled in the next 30 days.
