Man arrested entering the Capitol with a machete and three knives

A man with a machete was shockingly caught trying to enter the U.S. Capitol just before Donald Trump's scheduled visit to President Jimmy Carter's remains at the complex.

Capitol Police confirmed the man was arrested in a thread on X Wednesday afternoon.

'Just after 2:00 p.m., our officers stopped and arrested a man who tried to get a machete into the Capitol Visitor Center (CVC),' the first post began.  

'During security screening at the CVC’s north doors, our officers spotted a machete in the man’s bag, stopped the x-ray machine, arrested the man, and secured the machete.'

But authorities uncovered more than just a machete. 

'Three knives were also found in the bag, along with the machete,' the authorities revealed.

'Security screening was temporarily stopped at the north side of the Capitol Visitor Center while we investigated.'

The man, who was not named, is being arrested for 'multiple charges of Carrying a Dangerous Weapon.'

The Capitol Police said addition information is to come. 

This is a breaking story and will continue to be updated.
