According to Zach Seidl, a spokesperson for Mayor Karen Bass, the Los Angeles Police Department initially investigated the threat and identified Williams as the likely source in their statement. Due to their working relationship with him, the case was referred to the FBI. Mayor Karen Bass's office takes the matter seriously, and no immediate danger was found during the initial investigation by the LAPD.
