🚨 FBI Director Kash Patel's Sunday social media post labeling the Pearl Street Mall incident "a targeted terror attack" caught local law enforcement off guard because "the FBI was not a 'co-agent' in the investigation" until later Sunday. Police Chief Stephen Redfearn said they were close to making that determination, but didn't want to risk walking it back. (Denver Post)
The chief added that upcoming events — particularly those involving the Jewish community — will see heightened security, though the city is aiming to avoid a lasting "military state" feel.
