Remain vigilant.

An armed man claiming to be affiliated with law enforcement was detained Friday after entering the Arizona stadium where conservative activist Charlie Kirk’s memorial service is set to take place Sunday, according to the Secret Service.

The man, who was not identified, entered State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona, and was observed “exhibiting suspicious behavior,” the Secret Service said in a statement late Friday. When Secret Service agents approached him, he claimed to be a member of law enforcement and said he was armed, the service said.

“The individual is not a member of authorized law enforcement working the event and is currently in custody,” the service said, adding that he had not been arrested as of late Friday night. “The U.S. Secret Service and local law enforcement are investigating the circumstances as to why he was at the location.” […]

The Department of Homeland Security has made Kirk’s service a Special Event Assessment Rating (SEAR) Level 1 event — a designation that allows the federal government to assign it sweeping security resources, akin to a Super Bowl.

Secret Service teams have been on the ground for several days coordinating security with other federal, state and local law enforcement officials, and were expected to begin setting up a perimeter around the stadium Saturday, the law enforcement official said.

His family turned him in: Kirk shooting suspect Tyler Robinson in custody

News conference upcoming.

Sam Cooper has a summary up.

Utah Governor Spencer Cox said investigators were tipped off when a family member of Robinson confided to a friend that Robinson had mentioned Kirk at a family dinner, saying, “Charlie Kirk was coming to UVU” and that Kirk was “full of hate and spreading hate.” The friend alerted the Washington County Sheriff’s Office, which relayed the information to Utah County and the FBI.

Robinson was not a student at UVU, and lived with his parents, Cox confirmed.

Investigators confirmed Robinson’s gray Dodge Challenger was captured on campus video at 8:29 a.m. on September 10. His roommate later showed agents Discord messages in which Robinson allegedly described stashing a rifle at a “drop point,” wrapping it in a towel, and returning to watch the area. Messages also referred to “engraving bullets,” changing outfits, and the rifle being “unique.”
