Blue Lives Matter supporters arrested with ‘AR15s, shotguns & knives’ on way to Kenosha to ‘shoot people’
TWO men on their way to Kenosha to see President Donald Trump were arrested on Tuesday on firearm charges after cops swarmed their hotel room following a tip off.
Police were told that the Blue Lives Matter supporters from Missouri were heading to Kenosha armed with AR-15s and other heavy weaponry, court documents reveal.
Michael M. Karmo, 40, and Cody E. Smith, 33, were arrested at a La Quinta Inn outside of Kenosha.
The Justice Department announced Thursday they were initially charged with illegal possession of firearms.
The criminal complaint describes a large stockpile of weapons that were recovered from their room and their truck following the arrest, including an Armory AR-15 assault rifle, a Mossberg 500 AB 12-Gauge shotgun, two handguns, a "homemade silencer", ammunition, body armor and a drone.
