Maryland man allegedly plotted to kill Trump official — and showed up at his house with gloves and mask
The suspect allegedly said he feared a 'fascist takeover' after the last election.
The Arlington County Police Department announced the arrest of a man for allegedly plotting to kill the director of the Office of Management and Budget, according to sources familiar with the matter.
Police said that 26-year-old Colin Demarco of Rockville was seen wearing rubber gloves and a surgical mask on Aug. 10 when he was spotted by a witness on the porch of the victim.
'I am at my wits' end and this might be the final straw. I want to get a gun, head to DC and kill him.'
The witness interacted with the man, who appeared to be concealing a firearm and carried a backpack. The man fled but was identified through footage from surveillance video.
Police said they obtained a search warrant for digital records of the suspect and found that he appeared to have solicited to have the target killed and had looked up directions to his house.
