Exclusive Details
2:09 PM PT — Police tell us they arrested the man and charged him with carrying a dangerous weapon, carrying a rifle or shotgun outside a business, possession of unregistered ammunition and possession of a large capacity ammunition feeding device.
Vice President Kamala Harris could have been in danger Wednesday afternoon … the Secret Service tells us agents detained a man outside the Veep’s D.C. residence and cops say he had guns and ammo.
The agents stopped the man around 1 PM ET near the Naval Observatory, which is the traditional Vice President’s mansion. Cops say they found a firearm, a bunch of ammo and several gun clips with ammo in the man’s car, which was parked in a D.C. garage.
Fortunately, the Veep wasn’t at the Naval Observatory when agents nabbed the man — the mansion is getting a bunch of repairs so she and Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff have been living at Blair House … a 19th-century row house steps away from the White House.
The Vice Prez was working Wednesday in the Eisenhower Executive Office Building, which is right next to Blair House.
