U.S. Park Police arrested a man lurking suspiciously overnight in Arlington National Cemetery and closed several major roads near the Pentagon Friday morning.

According to WRC-TV, an explosive device was found in the man’s vehicle parked near the Pentagon, though a Park Police spokesman said he could not confirm that. According to WJLA, the man may have had ammonium nitrate on him when arrested.

  1. terrorist assholes, close the road to the golf course and take obama instead!

  2. I have been expecting another fairly large attack in the US since Obama took office, just as I have been expecting an American version of the Reichstag fire, thankfully this isn’t either one.
