A man armed with two guns was arrested at a Los Angeles event in which Democratic presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. was speaking Friday.

Kennedy posted on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter, that a man “wearing two shoulder holsters with loaded pistols and spare ammunition magazines” tried to approach him at a Hispanic Heritage speech at the Wilshire Ebell Theatre in Los Angeles.

“He identified himself as a member of my security detail. Armed GDBA [Gavin de Becker and Associates] team members moved quickly to isolate and detain the man until LAPD arrived to make the arrest. I’m also grateful to LAPD for its rapid response,” Kennedy wrote. He added that the man was wearing a U.S. Marshals Service badge.

The Los Angeles Police Department told NBC4 that the man in question did not point the weapon at anyone but was arrested on a gun charge and for impersonating a U.S. marshal. The incident happened around 4:30 p.m., the LAPD said.
