During a search of the vehicle, officers discovered three firearms and dozens of rounds of ammunition, and the car itself was reported stolen, according to US officials. As reported by RBC-Ukraine citing the Associated Press, the detainee told service personnel that he hears voices in his head which, he claimed, ordered him to come to Washington and kill US President Donald Trump. ### How the detention unfolded According to available reports, the attention of Secret Service agents was drawn to the behavior of a man inside a vehicle parked near the president's residence. These suspicious actions prompted an inspection, during which three firearms and a significant amount of ammunition were found inside the cabin. It was soon established that the vehicle was listed as stolen, further confirming the legitimacy of the arrest. The suspect was taken into custody and is currently being held by the US Marshals Service, with charges already filed against him. ### Who was behind the wheel According to the US Department of Homeland Security, the detainee is Ronnie Yordrix Guanipa Chinos, a migrant from Venezuela who was residing in the US illegally. According to available information, he entered the country through Texas in March 2024. US officials report that it was this individual who spoke of "voices in his head" allegedly instructing him to travel to the capital and assassinate the president. The White House has not officially commented on the situation, redirecting journalistic inquiries to the Department of Homeland Security and the Secret Service. ### Not the first threat to the president's life Threats against Donald Trump's life are not unprecedented. On the night of April 26 Kyiv time, during the US president's dinner with White House pool journalists at the Washington Hilton hotel, an armed man broke through a checkpoint and opened fire. Trump was urgently evacuated and one security officer was wounded, though a bulletproof vest saved him from death. The shooter turned out to be 31-year-old teacher Cole Allen from Torrance, California, who was detained at the scene. Subsequently, according to media reports, he confessed that he planned to shoot officials of the Trump administration. ### Context: security around the residence The new incident once again raises questions about the density of security measures in the perimeter of the White House, one of the most heavily guarded areas in the world. The detention took place in the evening when control around the residence is traditionally tightened. At the time of publication on XAB.info, the suspect remains in custody, charges have been filed, and details of the criminal case, including qualification and potential sentences, remain subject to further proceedings in US courts. ## Fact-Check & Sources - [У Белого дома задержали мужчину с оружием, которому голоса велели убить Трампа](https://www.rbc.ua/ukr/news/bilya-bilogo-domu-zatrimali-ozbroenogo-cholovika-1794026113.html) - Первоисточник: задержание вечером 5 ноября, три единицы оружия, угнанный автомобиль, личность подозреваемого (Ронни Йордрикс Гуанипа Чинос, мигрант из Венесуэлы, въезд через Техас в марте 2024 г.), контекст инцидента 26 апреля с Коулом Алленом.
