Man Allegedly Possessing Gun, Ammunition Arrested Outside US Vice President's Residence
A Texas man wanted by police was arrested on suspicion of carrying a weapon and possessing unregistered ammunition near the US vice president’s residence on March 17, local news reports said.
NBC 4 Washington reported that an AR-15 semi-automatic rifle, 113 rounds of ammunition, and several gun clips were found in a car belonging to the suspect, identified locally as 31-year-old Paul Murray of San Antonio.
Footage by Andrew Leyden shows a man in handcuffs standing with police near the US Naval Observatory, where the vice president usually resides. A police spokesperson told Storyful they could not confirm whether or not the person in the footage is the suspect. However, he is similar in appearance to a photo released by law enforcement.

According to The Hill, Vice President Kamala Harris has not yet moved into the residence.
