A Washington DC police officer was placed on desk duty after he threatened to kill First Lady Michelle Obama.

Reports say the officer, who served in President Barack Obama’s motorcade, was reassigned on Wednesday after a fellow officer overheard him discussing how he would kill Mrs. Obama and reported him to their superiors.

It is alleged that the unnamed officer, who was a member of the Special Operations Division, showed fellow cops a cellphone picture of a gun and said he would use it on the First Lady.

He was immediately put on administrative duties while the incident is being investigated by Secret Service and DC Metropolitan Police internal affairs unit.
