A Virginia man was arrested Friday evening after he allegedly tried to enter a Washington, D.C. security checkpoint with a gun, about 500 rounds of ammunition and fake inaugural credentials, according to The Daily Mail.
The outlet identifies him as Wesley. He reportedly tried to pass through security set up in downtown D.C. ahead of Joe Biden’s inauguration.
A police report alleges Wesley drove a pickup truck to a checkpoint at North Capitol and E Street, close to the Capitol. He allegedly showed officers fake inauguration credentials in an effort to get through the security perimeter.
Police reportedly found a Glock semi automatic pistol in the truck’s armrest, loaded with 17 rounds and a round in the chamber. The police report obtained by The Daily Mail says officers later found the pistol, 509 rounds of ammunition, shotgun shells and a handgun magazine.
He was taken into custody and arrested on several offenses, including possession of an unregistered firearm and unregistered ammunition. These are allegations, and Baller Alert has not seen a response from Wesley.
