Arrest of Venezuelan national near White House

Overview

On November 5, 2026, the U.S. Secret Service arrested Ronny Yordrix Guanipa Chrinos, a Venezuelan national, near the White House after he was observed acting suspiciously in a stolen vehicle on Constitution Avenue.

Authorities recovered an AR-15 style rifle, a MAC-10 machine pistol, a Glock 43X pistol, and various rounds of ammunition from the vehicle. During the encounter, Chrinos allegedly stated through Google Translate that he was hearing voices instructing him to travel to Washington, D.C., to assassinate President Donald Trump.

Records from the Department of Homeland Security indicate that Chrinos entered the United States illegally via Texas in March 2024 and was released under the Biden administration.

On November 8, the U.S. Department of Justice formally charged the 26 year old with several federal offenses. These include threats against the president, illegal possession of weapons and ammunition by an undocumented immigrant, and possession of a stolen vehicle. He remains in the custody of the U.S. Marshals Service while the legal process continues in the District of Columbia.
