THE GUARDIAN: Document says man claimed he would attempt to harm monarch while she was visiting California
An FBI file relating to a visit to the US by the late Queen Elizabeth II has revealed a potential plot to assassinate her.
The document, available on the FBI’s online vault, outlines what appears to be intelligence provided to federal agents about a threat to the queen’s life in California 40 years ago.
Queen Elizabeth and her husband, the Duke of Edinburgh, made an official visit to the US west coast in February and March 1983.
The file states that a phone call was made by “a man who claimed that his daughter had been killed in Northern Ireland by a rubber bullet”. » | PA Media | Friday, May 26, 2023
