Former Sen. Jeff Flake (R-Ariz.) said there are "several" threats made against him and his family from Trump supporters being investigated because of his criticisms of the president.
An unidentified man carrying a rifle scope had gone to three different Arizona locations associated with the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in an attempt to find him, Flake told The Guardian in an interview released Wednesday.
It was a man living out of his car. He told someone he had just attended a Trump rally, Flake, a devout Mormon, told the outlet. He noted that the man arrived at another event two weeks ago.
The Mesa Police Department confirmed to the outlet the they were assisting Flake and his investigation during an investigation.

(13,849 posts)There are some very disturbed people out there. Lord knows I don't agree with Flake about a lot of things, but neither he nor his family deserve this type of fear. People who behave like this need to be removed from the streets. (Jail or mental health facility.) I hope that JF and his family will be safe.
