Washington, January 9: A home owned by the judge overseeing the federal election subversion case against former president Donald Trump was targeted by a fake emergency call Sunday night, the latest in a spate of similar false swatting reports at the homes of public officials in recent days. Police responded around 10 pm to a report of a shooting at a Washington, DC, home linked in public records to US District Judge Tanya Chutkan. But officers quickly found out that no shooting happened, the Metropolitan Police Department said Monday.

Chutkan has received numerous threats since she was assigned Trump's case last year. In August, a Texas woman was arrested after calling the courthouse and threatening to kill Chutkan and other officials. Investigators traced her phone number, and she later admitted to making the threatening call, according to court documents. Sunday's incident comes after a spike in swatting directed at high-profile public officials over the holidays.슬롯 머신 사이트 추천Donald Trump To Be Arrested?

State capitols and courthouses in several states were also targeted by bomb threats last week, prompting lockdowns and evacuations.
