What’s supposed to be a celebration of life and love has turned into a scene off of a horror movie. The shooting in Orlando has left many individuals nervous about attending any pride events across the country today, and LA didn’t make it any better. A man with assault riffles was arrested earlier today after he informed cops that he was on his way to the Pride parade in Weho today.
According to TMZ, the guy told police he was on his way to meet his friend at the parade, 10 miles away in West Hollywood. Something seemed off about about the guy so police searched his car and found “multiple assault rifles with a number of loaded magazines that were stacked and taped together– which is an indicator that he was preparing to fire off multiple rounds if he got the chance.
