A 21-year-old man was arrested near the Republican National Convention (RNC) on Tuesday, July 16, 2024, after being spotted by Homeland Security police and Capitol police wearing a ski mask and carrying an AK47 pistol with a full magazine. The man was also found to be in possession of a Scream mask in a large backpack he was carrying.
According to a federal law enforcement source, the man was stopped by police after he was seen acting suspiciously near the Fiserv Forum, where the RNC was being held. The man was arrested by Milwaukee PD and charged with carrying a concealed weapon without a legal permit.
The incident has raised concerns about security at the RNC, which has been a target of protests and potential threats in the past. The Secret Service, which is responsible for protecting the President and other dignitaries, has been criticized for its handling of security at the event.
In a statement, a spokeswoman for the House Oversight Committee said that the Department of Homeland Security had taken over communications between the committee and the Secret Service and had refused to confirm a time for a briefing that was supposed to take place on Tuesday. The committee has been seeking answers from the Secret Service about a security failure at a rally held by former President Donald Trump in Pennsylvania on July 13, 2024, where an attempt was made on his life.
The committee has also requested that the Secret Service turn over information and records related to the rally, including documents, communications, and recordings from the event and planning. The Secret Service has agreed to brief the committee on July 22, 2024, but the committee has issued a subpoena for Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle to attend the hearing.
The incident at the RNC comes at a time of heightened political tensions in the United States, with the country gearing up for the 2024 presidential election. Republicans and Democrats have been engaged in a bitter battle for control of Congress and the White House, with each side accusing the other of undermining democracy and the rule of law.
As the investigation into the incident at the RNC continues, many are calling for a thorough review of security protocols and procedures to ensure the safety of all those attending the convention. The incident serves as a reminder of the ongoing threat of violence and extremism in the United States and the need for vigilance and preparedness in the face of such threats.
