US law enforcement agencies have been on high alert as US general election results continue to come in on Wednesday. The US general election followed a summer of civil unrest that ensued after the death of African-American man George Floyd in police custody on May 25.
The latest election results show sitting US President Donald Trump and Democratic challenger Joe Biden in a dead heat in the presidential election, with three Rust Belt states – Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin – expected to determine the outcome.
