Armed Man Arrested Near Southern California Rally Where Trump Was Scheduled to Appear

ai generated text

Vem Miller, a 49-year-old Las Vegas resident, was arrested at a security checkpoint outside Donald Trump's rally in Coachella, California. Deputies noticed that the interior of his unregistered black SUV was in disarray and found a shotgun, a loaded handgun, fake licenses, and fake passports. Miller presented a press pass and a VIP pass, but was subsequently booked at a local detention center on charges of possessing a loaded firearm and a high-capacity magazine. He was released on bail and faces a court hearing on January 2. The Riverside County Sheriff's office stated that Miller was stopped without incident and that this incident did not impact the safety of former President Trump. Miller is believed to be a member of a right-wing anti-government organization and has a UCLA master's degree and ran for Nevada state assembly.

    1. I thought it's not going to happen in Riverside county.
    2. We know he claimed to be a journalist, and he claimed to have VIP status to the event that got him into the perimeter, and when that investigation was continued by the deputy, that didn't necessarily materialise.
    3. We know we prevented something bad from happening, and it was irrelevant what that bad was going to be.
    4. We don't have the same sicko issues and violent protests like they have in Los Angeles. We're better than that. Go figure.
    5. So other than his words that he was a journalist ... I can't tell you that he gave us a document and we said that was fake.
    6. If you're asking me right now, I probably did have deputies that prevented the third assassination attempt.

    1. I'm an artist, I'm the last person that would cause any violence and harm to anybody.
