An armed man claiming to be a law enforcement officer was detained at the Charlie Kirk memorial site in Arizona on Saturday, according to a report.

Officials expect the memorial service at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona to draw about 100,000 attendees, including President Trump and Vice President JD Vance.

“The U.S. Secret Service in coordination with local law enforcement in Glendale, Arizona, is investigating an individual who was observed exhibiting suspicious behavior at State Farm Stadium,” Secret Service spokesperson Anthony Guglielmi said, according to Fox News Digital.

“The individual was approached by Secret Service and stated during the encounter that he was a member of law enforcement and that he was armed. The individual is not a member of authorized law enforcement working the event and is currently in custody,” he also said.
