An armed man from Massachusetts was apprehended by Capitol Police near the Library of Congress after taking a tour of the Capitol the day after inauguration, authorities revealed.
James Faber, 27, was promptly arrested after authorities found a 9mm handgun “concealed in his waistband.” They found him while responding to reports of a man with “mental health issues and suicidal thoughts.”
“Thankfully nobody was hurt. The USCP demands the highest standards when it comes to screening visitors, so a full review of this incident has already been ordered, as well as mandatory refresher training on security screening, so this never happens again,” Capitol Police said in a statement.
Faber was arrested on charges of carrying a pistol without a license, resisting arrest, possession of an unregistered firearm and unlawful possession of ammunition.The 27-year-old had been allowed into the
Capitol Visitor Center earlier in the day Tuesday prior to being detained, despite magnetometers sounding and an officer conducting a hand search. That officer has been suspended pending an investigation.
