Fox21Online January 13, 2021 DULUTH, Minn. – St. Louis County Sheriff Ross Litman says he’s confident his office is prepared to handle any potential violence against county government buildings, amid an FBI warming of “armed protests” at all 50 state capitols before, during or even after President-elect Joe Biden’s inauguration. Litman told FOX 21’s Dan Hanger Wednesday that his deputies are on a “heightened sense of awareness,” especially concerning the county courthouses, which are mentioned as potential targets of violence across the country by the FBI. St. Louis County Sheriff Ross Litman Litman says there’s no specific threat in St. Louis County, but his main goal is protecting government buildings, staff, judges, elected officials and anyone who may peacefully protest – as has been the case in his 18-plus years as sheriff.
