As noted, there have been reports of a possible Isis attack at WWE Survivor Series at The Phillips Arena in Atlanta. The FBI issued a statement and said that it is taking the threats very seriously. The problem is that the information of the attack did not have a specific or credible source.
WSB TV reporter Mark Winne from Atlanta has been tweeting updates on the potential attacks. Winne said that authorities are ahead of the threat, but are not ignoring it. He also suggested that the threat of an attack may have been posted to inspire lone-wolf attackers. You can see Winn’es tweets below:
