In a startling turn of events, NFL star Travis Kelce found himself caught up in a death threat scandal that had nothing to do with his actions.
The incident took place on June 16th outside a recent fundraiser for A viral video on social media captured a topless man standing in Downtown Los Angeles with a guitar bag, claiming he had a gun inside. The unidentified man went on a 20-minute rant, during which he threatened to assassinate President Joe Biden. Unexpectedly, the man also turned his attention to Travis Kelce.
“I want to kill Travis Kelce,” the man declared. “I got a gun in here. I got a gun right here to kill Joe Biden. Where’s the Secret Service?” The footage concluded with law enforcement officers swiftly apprehending the man and placing him in handcuffs.
This incident occurred just weeks after Kelce’s humorous interaction with President Biden at the White House, following the Kansas City Chiefs’ Super Bowl LVIII victory. Kelce’s” My fellow Americans” speech amused many, and he recently discussed it on the “New Heights” podcast.
