Following a Trump rally in Asheboro, North Carolina, 79-year-old Robert Richard Castona Jr. was cited for displaying a weapon during a road rage incident. Police reported that while a weapon was shown from within Castona's vehicle, it was not pointed at anyone, nor were any threats made, which led to the conclusion that no serious charges were warranted. Castona was charged under North Carolina General Statute 14-277.2 for bringing a weapon to a parade and is set to appear in court on September 16. The incident occurred as attendees were leaving the rally, marking Trump's first outdoor appearance since an assassination attempt in July. No injuries were reported during the incident, and several weapons were found during the police investigation. This event highlights ongoing concerns regarding safety at political gatherings.
