Police reports show that a 'strange man' threatened to drive a car into Kari Lake rally in Iowa
The initial reports of an "angry, threatening man" came shortly after Lake got to the event.
An unidentified man threatened to drive his jeep into a Des Moines, Iowa venue where former Arizona gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake was holding a rally last Saturday.
Ankeny Police Department incident reports obtained by The Iowa Star described the man as "scruffy and big," and said he had "declared that he was god, and stated he would drive his vehicle through the bar doors."
Lake's rally was for the purpose of discussing her ongoing election lawsuit in Arizona, her support for former president Donald Trump and her plans for the future.
The initial reports of an "angry, threatening man" came in at 5:28 p.m., soon after Lake arrived at the event.
"Male was acting strange in the parking lot asking where the event was tonight,” the police report states.
As of now, the police say that the man remains at large.
Lake's director of security said that they are working with the Ankeny Police Department and are closely monitoring the situation.
"We take threats like this very seriously, which is why we have procedures in place to ensure everyone's safety," he said in a statement to the outlet.
