During interrogations, the driver disclosed himself to be a journalist but it was not clear if he was in possession of proper credentials to corroborate his claim. While questioning, the deputies discovered that the interior of the vehicle was unkempt and rough which prompted a thorough search.
During the search, weapons and ammo with various fake and mismatched passports and driving licences were unearthed, Bianco stated
He was eventually arrested on suspicion that he possessed a loaded dangerous firearm and high-capacity magazine.
“This incident did not impact the safety of former President Trump or attendees of the event. Trump had not yet arrived at the rally at the time of the arrest,” the sheriff said on Sunday.
The suspect has immediately been charged to court which is scheduled to hold on 2nd January, 2025, report says.
Attending to fielded questions by the media, Bianco refused to suggest or digress on the motive or frame of mind of the suspect.
“We know we prevented something bad from happening, and it was irrelevant what that bad was going to be,” Bianco said.
In Bianco’s statement, the man managed to beat the outer security checkpoints but was flagged by the inner one controlled by the sheriff’s department. He also noted that there was another security checkpoint operated by the Secret Service close to the campaign ground.
“The U.S. Secret Service assesses that the incident did not impact protective operations and former President Trump was not in any danger. While no federal arrest has been made at this time, the investigation is ongoing,” the United States Attorney said on Sunday.
When contacted, the Trump’s campaign could not immediately respond for own comments on the situation and the arrest of the suspect.
