Federal authorities are investigating a possible terrorist threat to the United States, just days before the tenth anniversary of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, according to Fox News.
ABC News has more details. Intelligence officials told ABC that three individuals entered the country with the intent of launching a ‘vehicle-borne attack’ against New York or Washington D.C., around the anniversary of 9/11.
The threat — described as “specific » and « credible » — has not yet been confirmed, reports NBC.
A senior administration official also told Fox that President Obama has been briefed on the threat. Some members of Congress have also been briefed on the unconfirmed threat, reports CNN.
According to NBC, who spoke with two U.S. officials, discussions are under way about whether the threat warning status should be raised.
