   Washington (CNN)The FBI is investigating the alleged harassment   
   of a Joe Biden campaign bus last week by motorists displaying   
   Trump 2020 flags, an FBI spokesperson confirmed Sunday.   
      
   "FBI San Antonio is aware of the incident and investigating,"   
   FBI spokesperson Michelle Lee told CNN.   
      
   The incident took place in Texas on Friday as the campaign bus   
   was traveling from San Antonio to Austin as part of a push to   
   urge Biden supporters to cast their ballots on the state's last   
   day of early voting. A Biden campaign official described the   
   motorists' actions as an attempt to slow down the bus and run it   
   off the road.   
      
   People in vehicles that were part of a "Trump Train" began   
   yelling profanities and obscenities and then blockaded the   
   entire Biden entourage, according to a source familiar with the   
   incident.   
      
   At one point they slowed the tour bus to roughly 20 mph on   
   Interstate 35, the campaign official said. The vehicles slowed   
   down to try to stop the bus in the middle of the highway. The   
   source said there were nearly 100 vehicles around the campaign   
   bus. Biden staffers were rattled by the event, the source said,   
   though no one was hurt.   
      
   Neither Biden nor his running mate, California Sen. Kamala   
   Harris, were on the bus. Multiple sources told CNN that Wendy   
   Davis, a former state senator who is challenging Republican Rep.   
   Chip Roy for Texas' 21st Congressional District, was on the bus.   
   Davis' campaign declined to comment to CNN on Saturday.   
      
   Staffers on the bus called 911, which eventually led to local   
   law enforcement assisting the bus to its destination.   
      
   President Donald Trump tweeted a video of the bus incident with   
   the words "I LOVE TEXAS!" on Saturday, and claimed at a campaign   
   rally on Sunday that his supporters were "protecting" the bus.   
      
   "But it is something, did you see the way our people they ...   
   you know they were protecting his bus yesterday, because they're   
   nice," the President said.   
      
   Biden told reporters in Texas Sunday evening, "We've never had   
   anything like this."   
      
   "At least we've never had a president who thinks it's a good   
   thing," he said.   
      
   This story has been updated with FBI confirmation of the   
   investigation and comments from Joe Biden.
