Venezuelan national arrested near White House for alleged threats against Trump

Ronny Yordrix Guanipa Chirinos Donald Trump White House Secret Service assassination threat

Ronny Yordrix Guanipa Chirinos, a 26-year-old Venezuelan national, was arrested near the White House on November 5 after allegedly telling Secret Service officers that voices in his head instructed him to kill President Donald Trump.

During the encounter on Constitution Avenue, authorities discovered a stolen vehicle containing three firearms: an AR-15-style rifle, a MAC-10 machine pistol, and a Glock 43X pistol, along with dozens of rounds of ammunition. Federal authorities reported that Chirinos had entered the United States illegally through Texas in March 2024.

The U.S. Department of Justice has formally charged Chirinos with several federal offenses, including threats against the president, illegal possession of weapons and ammunition by an undocumented immigrant, and possession of a stolen vehicle. He remains in custody under the supervision of the U.S. Marshals Service while the legal process continues in the District of Columbia.
