The FBI disrupted an alleged plot against the UFC Freedom 250 event at the White House, resulting in five arrests. Verified details include intelligence received on June 10 2026, an initial arrest in Cincinnati, and confirmation by FBI Director Kash Patel, with additional unverified claims involving drones, snipers, and up to two dozen suspects.
