A Texas man was arrested outside Vice President Kamala Harris’ official residence, the US Naval Observatory in Washington D.C., on Wednesday.

The VP does not live at the home yet.

The incident took place on Wednesday and the trespasser is now facing weapons and ammunition charges.

According to a spokesperson for Washington’s Metropolitan Police, law enforcement contacted the man after a region-wide intelligence bulletin had been issued for the suspect.

DC police say officers arrested and charged 31-year-old Paul Murray, of San Antonio, and that a rifle and ammunition were recovered from his vehicle.

A police report obtained by CNN shows officers allege Murray was in possession of an “AR-15 semi-automatic rifle, 113 rounds of unregistered ammunition, and five 30 round magazines.”

According to police, he’s been charged with several counts: carrying a dangerous weapon, carrying a rifle or shotgun outside of a business, possession of unregistered ammunition and possession of a large capacity ammunition feeding device.

He’s currently in custody.
