White House confirms discovery of classified documents at Biden’s home

() — Advisers to US President Joe Biden located documents with classified marks in two locations inside his home in Wilmington, Delaware, the White House counsel’s office said in a statement Thursday.

The documents were located in a storage area in the garage and then in an adjacent room, the statement said.

They were located after a search of the president’s homes in Wilmington and Rehoboth Beach, Delaware. No classified documents were found in Rehoboth, the statement said.

The documents were found “among personal and political papers,” the statement read.

Biden’s lawyers wrapped up their review of the Delaware homes Wednesday night.

“As was done in the Penn-Biden Center case, the Department of Justice was immediately notified and attorneys made arrangements for the Department of Justice to take possession of these documents,” the statement read.

The White House said it will continue to cooperate with the Justice Department’s review.
