It begins: Man who planned on attacking Convention Ctr where votes being counted taken into custody

.@6abc ’s @BobBrooks6abc reports that Philadelphia Police took an allegedly armed man into custody, after they say he drove up from Virginia to “attack the Convention Center,” where the vote counting is underway.

This is the price of rhetoric detached from reality.

Philly police investigating alleged plot to attack Pennsylvania Convention Center

PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) -- Philadelphia police are investigating an alleged plot to attack the Pennsylvania Convention Center in Philadelphia on Thursday night.

Action News has learned that police got a tip about a group, possibly a family, driving up from Virginia in a Hummer to unleash an attack at the Convention Center where votes are being counted in Philadelphia.

Action News was there as a man was taken into custody. It's unclear how or if the man is connected with the investigation.

Police say they recovered a weapon and believe they recovered the Hummer they received a tip about.

No injuries have been reported.
