U-Haul Carrying Nazi Flag Rams Barrier Near WH

Reuters reports:

The U.S. Secret Service said it had detained the driver of a rented box truck that crashed into security barriers near the White House on Monday night, perhaps intentionally, but that there were no injuries or ongoing danger.

A Reuters witness said investigators found a Nazi swastika flag that apparently came from inside the truck, which crashed into barriers at Lafayette Square, adjacent to the White House grounds.

The driver is now facing a number of charges including threatening to kill, kidnap or inflict harm on a President or family member and assault with a deadly weapon.

The Independent reports:

A video posted by a witness to the crash, Chris Zaboji, showed the truck driving into the barricades and, after crashing once, driving into them a second time.

The 25-year-old Zaboji, an airline pilot living in Washington, said he was walking home after jogging on the national mall when he heard a loud crash. The initial ramming made him take out his phone and start recording.

“I looked back and saw that the U-Haul van had rammed into the barricade. I backed away behind a guy on a golf cart and took the video on my phone. After I saw it rammed again I didn’t want to be anywhere near the truck and left,” he said.

As you can see below, the cult is already busy on Twitter calling the incident fake.
