as posted by the channel

The man accused of storming the White House Correspondents Dinner is set to be arraigned in a federal court in Washington Monday. Cole Tomas Allen, 31, was arrested after shots were fired at the hotel where the event was taking place, forcing Donald Trump and senior officials to take cover. #trump #washington #whitehouse #politics #worldnews #usa

Cole Tomas Allen, 31, bought a shotgun from Turner’s Outdoorsman in Torrance and a semi-automatic pistol from CAP Tactical Firearms in Lawndale.

Allen traveled cross-country by rail and stayed at the Washington Hilton before the attack, and his exact targets and motives weren’t clear.

Allen faces two federal charges and additional charges are expected, with a scheduled arraignment in federal court in Washington.
