Serving as the President of the United States of America is an extremely risky job. While it’s true that only a few presidents were killed in office, this is largely due to a tremendous effort by the Secret Service. They work tirelessly to keep the President safe.

For example, a man was just arrested at the Trump hotel in DC for having several guns and nearly a hundred rounds of ammunition. Secret Service agents were called to investigate the “potential threat.”

According to reports, police officers in Washington D.C. recently arrested Bryan Moles, a physician from Pennsylvania, after two unlicensed guns, an AR-15 and a Glock 23, were found in his car. Earlier in the day, Moles told someone about the guns and mentioned he was heading to the D.C. Trump Hotel. Concerned, the person he told called the call the police.

Moles also told a second person, the hotel’s parking attendant, about the guns after reaching the hotel, and they too alerted the police, who subsequently alerted the Secret Service. When they arrived to investigate, they saw one of his guns in plain view and called for backup. Once additional agents showed up, they did a more thorough search of the car. During their search, they found an additional firearm and nearly one hundred rounds of ammo. They then placed Moles in handcuffs and took him into custody. He was charged with possessing two guns in the District without the proper licenses.

After being arrested, he allegedly told police that he is a military veteran suffering from PTSD. He reportedly served in the U.S. Navy from 1992 to 2006 as a hospital corpsman. While active, he received several honors, including a Navy Reserve Meritorious Service Medal and a Pistol Marksmanship Ribbon. After leaving the Navy, he worked as a physician at Saint Vincent Hospital in Erie, Pennsylvania for several years before transferring to the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center, where he worked up until recently. A spokeswoman for the hospital told reporters that shortly before being arrested, Moles was placed on administrative leave for unknown reasons.

Peter Newsham, the Chief of the Metropolitan Police Department, was grateful no one was hurt. “I was very concerned about this circumstance,” he told reporters, noting, “I believe the officers and our federal partners, and in particular the tipster, averted a potential disaster here in our nation’s capital.” He continued, “we had an indication that he was going to the Trump hotel,” adding, “I’m not going to read anything into it, but the detailed information provided by the tipster was really important for us to get over there quickly.”

Following Moles’ arrest, the hotel released a statement. “We take the safety and security of guests very seriously. It is our first priority,” they said, adding, “this morning, the authorities arrested a guest who was behaving suspiciously. The matter is under investigation, therefore, it would be inappropriate for us to provide additional details. Please refer your inquiry to the investigating authorities.”

Initially, some feared Moles might try to attack people staying at the hotel. However, after being taken into custody, he explained that he was simply staying in the hotel because he supports Trump. His Facebook profile appears to support what he’s saying. Shortly before leaving to D.C., he asked his Facebook friends: “if you had to choose between a Hilton Hotel and a Trump hotel, which would you choose and why?” One of his friends, who’s comment was “liked” by Moles, replied, “Trump all the way. The dark side wants to disarm the public so they can … just walk through any resistance to their fascist thought police.” By “liking” the comment, it’s clear that Moles supported the President.

Lisa DellaRatta, a longtime friend of Moles, is convinced he wasn’t a threat. “There is absolutely no way [he was planning violence],” she told reporters, adding, “[he] cannot be a more standup man.”

Local law enforcement officials, who were given the lead in this case by the Secret Service, are still investigating the situation. As of now, it’s unclear whether or not he posed a threat to anyone.

The Secret Service are hired to do everything possible to keep our president safe. Sometimes, this means arresting people who may not actually be a threat. When this happens, the suspects need to be patient, remain calm, and cooperate with the agents. If it’s determined that they aren’t a threat, they’ll be released and allowed to go about their daily lives.
