NEW YORK: US Capitol Police have arrested a woman they said drove up to an inauguration checkpoint and falsely claimed she was a police officer and a member of the president’s cabinet, the authorities said. The arrest on Saturday is the latest to raise alarms as the city braces for planned protests on Sunday and possible clashes on Inauguration Day.
The arrest on Friday of a Virginia man who had a gun in his truck raised fears until it was determined that the man appeared to be a security contractor who had illegally brought his gun into the district. Early on Sunday, city police officers also arrested a 22-year-old man from Virginia who they said had a handgun that he was not allowed to carry in Washington D.C. The man was a block away from Columbus Circle and had a Glock that was visible in a holster, 3 high-capacity magazines and 37 rounds of ammunition, the police said.
