Why would this 18 year old drive a white Mercedes all the way from Smyrna, GA, try to breach the US Capitol building, and then surrender when surrounded by police officers?
"Feb. 18 (UPI) -- Police have arrested an armed teenager who was running toward the U.S. Capitol building, authorities said.
The suspect, identified as 18-year-old Carter Camacho of Smyrna, Ga., was apprehended with a loaded shotgun and multiple rounds of ammunition and was wearing a tactical vest and gloves, U.S. Capitol Police said.
U.S. Capitol Police Chief Michael Sullivan told reporters during a press conference that the incident occurred shortly before noon Tuesday. He said the suspect parked his white Mercedes SUV in front of the U.S. Botanical Garden, exited the vehicle and started running toward the Capitol building armed with a shotgun.
The suspect was confronted by Capitol Police officers who directed the teenager to drop his weapon, which he did before lying on the ground where he was taken into police custody, Sullivan said.
A gas mask and a Kevlar helmet were found in the suspect's vehicle, Sullivan added.
The suspect's motive was unknown, according to Sullivan, who said he had multiple addresses and the vehicle he drove to the Capitol was not in his name.
Camacho has been charged with Unlawful Activities, Carrying a Rifle without a License, Unregistered Firearm and Unregistered Ammunition, U.S. Capitol Police said in a statement."
