Armed Man Posing as Law Enforcement Arrested at Arizona Site of Charlie Kirk Memorial Service

An armed man has been arrested at the State Farm stadium in Arizona where officials are preparing for a massive memorial service for slain conservative activist Charlie Kirk, according to MSNBC.

Reporter Jay Gray paraphrased from a Secret Service press release of the incident.

“Local law enforcement, along with the Secret Service, approached someone they said looked suspicious. And at that time, he told them that he was a member of law enforcement. He was armed. They continued to interview him, determined that he was not a member of law enforcement. He was taken into custody and remains in custody right now,” Gray said.

mask not a hodgepodge of bandanas? no army surplus jacket with hand-stenciled POLICE logo?
