Police in Montgomery County, Texas, detained and eventually released a man who was said to have been found with a handgun near the location of a Trump rally being held in The Woodlands.
(TexasGOPVote)- Police told Houston’s NBC affiliate, KPRC, they found a man with a handgun on the fourth floor of a parking garage. Sheriff’s deputies took the man into custody and escorted him, in handcuffs, away from the area.
Scott Engle, with the Montgomery County Police Reporter, spoke with Breitbart Texas Friday evening. He said the man was found in the parking garage near The Woodlands Hotel and Conference Center. He reportedly had a handgun in his luggage.
There has been no explanation about what may have aroused the suspicion of police officers or how they determined he had a gun in his luggage.
The man was wearing a Trump t-shirt over a green dress shirt. While he appeared to claim being a Trump supporter, it is not known if that is true or not.
About 30 minutes later, the local TV station found the man back outside, no longer in handcuffs.
KPRC spoke with the man, who would only identify himself as Kenny, and asked him if he had a gun.
“Did you have a gun on you?” KPRC’s Jennifer Bauer asked.
“No, of course not,” Kenny responded.
“So was it a misunderstanding? What happened?” Bauer asked in a follow-up question
“I can’t say. But make America great again. Trump is going to be our next president,” he said.
