Secret Service probes Iranian TV threat video targeting Barron Trump
What's new: The three-minute broadcast allegedly showed places Barron Trump, 20, might be found and referenced a $10 million bounty.
The U.S. Secret Service is investigating a video aired by Iranian state television that appeared to threaten Barron Trump, President Donald Trump’s youngest son. Agency spokesman Nate Herring said the Secret Service reviews anything that could be seen as a threat to people under its protection, but gave no further details because of operational security. Multiple outlets reported the three-minute video discussed a possible assassination plot, showed locations where Barron Trump might be found and suggested a $10 million reward. The episode adds to a string of public threats from Iran directed at Trump and his family amid escalating hostilities between Washington and Tehran.
