A man was arrested at Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s campaign event Thursday night in Los Angeles, California.
Kennedy shared the man's photo on X, formerly known as Twitter, with a caption that described him as carrying"shoulder holsters with loaded pistols and spare ammunition magazines,""a U.S. Marshal badge on a lanyard, and beltclip federal ID." While the Los Angeles Police Department has him in custody, his identity has not been revealed.
The man remains at Wilshire Station under police custody. He is likely to"be booked on a gun charge," per the station's Watch Commander. "I’m still entertaining a hope that President Biden will allow me Secret Service protection," Kennedy went on to write."I am the first presidential candidate in history to whom the White House has denied a request for protection."Kennedy's father, Robert F. Kennedy, was assassinated during his own presidential campaign in 1968. At the time, RFK Jr. was only 14 years old.
The Democratic presidential hopeful submitted a 67-page report to the Department of Homeland Security requesting a Secret Service detail but was rejected in July. The Secret Service is authorized to protect major presidential and vice presidential candidates and their spouses within 120 days of a general presidential election.
