A 23-year-old man from Oregon was taken into custody on Wednesday morning after officers from the U.S. Capitol Police (USCP) discovered his Subaru, which was towing a tricycle, illegally parked on the Capitol grounds. Inside the vehicle, authorities allegedly found a collection of weapons, such as an antique sword, various guns, knives, and unregistered ammunition.

Nolan R. Churan faces charges including engaging in unlawful activities, carrying a pistol without a license, possessing a rifle without a license, carrying a dangerous weapon—specifically a sword—possession of a high-capacity ammunition feeding device, having an unregistered firearm, and holding unregistered ammunition, as reported by officials.

According to the police, the Subaru allegedly contained a rifle, handgun, bow and arrow, halberd axe, rapier sword, numerous rounds of ammunition, several knives, along with a bow and arrow.

“Our Threat Assessment Section is working to learn more about what Churan was doing on Capitol Grounds,” officials wrote in the release.
