On Sunday, President Trump’s motorcade was rerouted after a “suspicious object” was found at Palm Beach International Airport (PBI).
The Hill reported that the U.S. Secret Service (USSS) discovered the object during advance sweeps at the president’s usual airport in Florida, prompting the motorcade to take a different route than usual to get to the airport, taking a circular route around town.
“During advance sweeps of PBI Airport, a suspicious object was discovered by USSS. A further investigation was warranted and the presidential motorcade route was adjusted accordingly,” White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said in a statement.
Police officers on motorcycles were traveling alongside the president’s motorcade. Air Force One parked on the opposite side of the airport from where it usually is located. The lights outside the plane were off when the motorcade arrived.
