The Refresh from Insider
The man who attempted to break into an FBI office in Cincinnati Thursday morning…and then engaged in an hours-long standoff with police…was killed by police… after reportedly raising his weapon.  Law enforcement sources have identified the suspect as 42-year-old Ricky Shiffer, who was apparently at the Capitol during the  January 6th insurrection. A Truth Social account under his same name appeared to be posting about the standoff as it was happening. It also had earlier posts urging people to quote “kill the FBI on sight” after the Mar-a-lago search.
