Police in major US cities are preparing in case ex-President Donald Trump is arrested this week by a George Soros funded DA in New York.
Authorities in New York, Washington DC and Los Angeles are ramping up their law enforcement presence.
Trump may be charged over claims that he paid a porn star to keep quiet about the affair they allegedly had.
It would be the first criminal case brought against a former US president.
Steel barricades were being erected on Monday outside the Manhattan Criminal Court, where Mr Trump could be charged, fingerprinted and photographed if charges are filed this week, as US media widely anticipate.
Increased police presence has also been seen outside Trump Tower in the city.
Every member of the New York Police Department (NYPD), including plainclothes detectives, has been ordered to wear their full uniform on Tuesday and is being placed on standby to mobilise, a police source told CBS, the BBC’s US partner.
The NYPD and the FBI’s Joint Terrorism Task Force have been in touch with the US Secret Service, whose job it is to protect presidents and former presidents, about how a potential arrest might take place.
