A woman has been arrested near
the White House after she reportedly told police that she had a special
delivery for US President Joe Biden; when in fact she had a loaded gun in her
car.
The unidentified 66-year-old
rolled toward a checkpoint in downtown D.C. Saturday evening … close to the
White House, which has a wide perimeter set for blocks on end. She was
apparently with a man, and told cops they were there to meet Biden.
As for why … cops say she told
them she wanted to give him a letter. That prompted a search of the vehicle,
where D.C. Metro says they discovered a loaded handgun. They claim the man she
was with also had a BB gun — but the woman was the only one arrested.
She was booked for possession of an unregistered
firearm. The case has since been referred to the Secret Service.
The situation is eerily familiar there was another arrest like this back in January, when a Virginia man also drove up to a checkpoint, allegedly with fake inauguration credentials and a loaded firearm as well plus a ton of ammo, according to cops.
Just a day later, a woman was arrested under similar circumstances coming up to
a checkpoint and trying to pass herself as a member of Biden’s cabinet. She got
busted too.
The National Guard’s been in town since Jan. 6, and are set to stay there for a
few more weeks. Probably a good idea.
