On Election Day, a man was arrested at the U.S. Capitol Visitor Center after being found with a torch, a flare gun, and smelling strongly of fuel. The suspect, a 28-year-old from Michigan, was stopped during a security screening, prompting Capitol Police to close the Visitor Center for the day while they investigated the incident. Reports indicate that the man had driven overnight to Washington, D.C. and reportedly carried a 25-page manifesto intended for Congress. Authorities have not yet released his name or a potential motive, and it remains unclear if there is any connection to the election. The arrest occurred amidst heightened security concerns and precautions across D.C. due to the election. Police are continuing their investigation and are on alert for any potential political violence.
