A man who triggered a security scare outside the White House warned authorities that he had a component of a nuclear weapon and indicated it was a “threat to the president.”
Washington 4 reports that the suspect had previous run-ins with FBI.
Records indicated that Jean-Paul Gamarra, 40, was a drifter and arrested in Lafayette Park.
“Gamarra was asked if he had a bomb with him and Gamarra said no, he had a component to launch a nuclear weapon,” according to the investigator. “Gamarra said he was not there to harm President Trump.”
