CNN: Three People Arrested on Weapons Charges After Suspicious Vehicle Seen Outside U.S. Supreme Court

‘There is a concern about a potential for explosives in that vehicle’

EXCERPT:

JOHNS: “Wolf, this is the east side of the United States Capitol, East Capitol Street in fact. As you said, it is the street that runs between the Library of Congress and the Supreme Court, with the United States Capitol in the background. We’ll turn around here and take a bit of a look. Now, what’s going on here at this time is authorities are taking a look at a vehicle. There is a concern about a potential for explosives in that vehicle. They have already arrested three people, we’re told from colleagues at CNN, on weapons charges. Those three people apparently from Georgia, and now the wait continues to determine whether there is anything dangerous or to be concerned about inside the vehicle. What this has done is caused a huge traffic jam in and around Capitol Hill as authorities have had to block off the streets to keep traffic out of the area. So that’s what we know right now, Wolf, and I’ll get back to you if we have any other information.”
