Philadelphia police are investigating allegations that an armed group may have been planning to attack the center-city location where ballots are being tallied, the local station WPVI reported Thursday night.



According to WPVI, police received a tip that a group, "possibly a family," drove up from Virginia in a Hummer "to unleash an attack at the Convention Center."

Police arrested one man, though it is not clear if the man detained was part of the group.


The Philadelphia Police Department did not immediately respond to Insider's request for comment. But the department told WPVI that it had recovered both a weapon and a Hummer.


This story is developing.

Ehh. If it was serious the FBI would be investigating that not Philadelphia police. They clout chasing. They putting extra presence around the building cause cacs mad.

But stop calling them militias and armed groups... they're terrorists.
