The Delaware computer repairman who went public with the contents of Hunter Biden’s laptop says his home was "swatted" Friday night.

"My home was swatted tonight, I was not home but the outstanding men and women of the Wilmington PD responded quickly and professionally," John Paul Mac Isaac posted to X, the social media platform formerly known as Twitter, on Dec. 29. "All that was achieved was the wasted time of the Wilmington PD. NOTHING, let me repeat that, NOTHING will take me out of this fight! Cheers!"

Swatting is the act of making a false report to emergency services to prompt a response at a particular address. The goal is to get authorities, particularly a SWAT team, to show up. 

The Wilmington Police Department did not immediately respond to a request for information about the swatting call at Mac Isaac's home. 

HUNTER BIDEN ARRIVES FOR DEPOSITION IN LAWSUIT FROM LAPTOP REPAIR SHOP OWNER

Hundreds of swatting cases occur annually, with some using caller ID spoofing to disguise their number.

Sen. Rick Scott, R-Fla., Boston Mayor Michelle Wu, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost and Maine Secretary of State Shenna Bellows have been among the recent victims, AP states.

HUNTER BIDEN FILES COUNTERSUIT AGAINST LAPTOP REPAIRMAN JOHN PAUL MAC ISAAC, ALLEGING PRIVACY VIOLATIONS

The FBI said earlier this year that it had created a national database in conjunction with other law enforcement agencies to track swatting incidents nationwide. Police had for months reported a huge surge in fake claims about active shooters at schools and colleges. There have also been reports of hundreds of swatting incidents and bomb threats against synagogues and other Jewish institutions since the Israel-Hamas war began.

Suspects in swatting cases are being arrested and charged as states contemplate stronger penalties.

Mac Isaac filed a defamation lawsuit against Biden in October 2022. Biden filed a counterclaim in March, alleging Mac Isaac illicitly distributed Biden's personal data and accused him of six counts of invasion of privacy.

Mac Isaac claims a man whom he believed to be Biden dropped off three laptops at his store in 2019, and did not return for the laptop within 90 days, rendering the laptop abandoned per store policy.

Mac Isaac could not get in touch with the customer, and said he first searched the emails by keyword in June or July 2019.

"Cale Yarborough was one of the toughest competitors NASCAR has ever seen," France said, via FOX Sports. "His combination of talent, grit and determination separated Cale from his peers, both on the track and in the record book.

"He was respected and admired by competitors and fans alike and was as comfortable behind the wheel of a tractor as he was behind the wheel of a stock car. On behalf of the France family and NASCAR, I offer my deepest condolences to the family and friends of Cale Yarborough."

ICONIC NASCAR ANNOUNCER KEN SQUIER DEAD AT 88

NASCAR put out a post on X.

"The NASCAR family mourns the loss of NASCAR Hall of Fame driver Cale Yarborough, who passed away at the age of 84," the organization wrote.

Reports of Yarborough’s declining health first surfaced in April, when John Dodson, the vice president of business alliances and NASCAR at Universal Technical Institute, offered his thoughts and prayers for the Yarborough family. Details around Yarborough’s apparent ailment were scarce.

Yarborough put together 83 wins and 319 top 10 finishes during his NASCAR career. He is one of two drivers in NASCAR history to win three consecutive championships. He won the Daytona 500 four times and he is sixth on the all-time list of NASCAR Cup Series victories.

He set the modern record for most poles in a season with 14. He finished his career with 69 poles overall.

The South Carolina native was named one of NASCAR’s 50 greatest drivers in 1999. He was inducted into the NASCAR Hall of Fame in 2012. He drove on the circuit from 1957 to 1988.
