"The FBI previously received information about Ricky Shiffer, the individual who attempted to breach the Visitor Screening Facility at the FBI Cincinnati Field Office on August 11, 2022," an FBI spokesperson told Fox News Digital in a statement. "The information did not contain a specific and credible threat. However, multiple field offices made attempts to locate and interview Shiffer which were unsuccessful."
Ricky Shiffer, 42, spent five years in the U.S. Navy between June 1998 and June 2003, mostly aboard the USS Columbia, a Los Angeles-class attack submarine.
