rally in Coachella, California, which law enforcement described as a
likely third assassination attempt against the former president, a
claim the suspect, who identifies as a Trump supporter, said was
false.
In a press conference Sunday, the Riverside County Sheriff's office
said 49-year-old Vem Miller from Nevada was taken into custody after
deputies stopped his black SUV at a security checkpoint and found
multiple unregistered firearms in his possessionincluding a shotgun
and a loaded handgunand a high capacity magazine.
While searching his car, deputies also discovered multiple passports
and drivers licenses with different names and found the vehicles
license plate was home-made and unregistered.
Miller was stopped after presenting a fake VIP pass for the Trump
rally to the deputies at the checkpoint and, upon being questioned,
later informed them he was a member of the far-right group known as
the Sovereign Citizens.
Miller was hit with two firearms-related charges and released on a
$5,000 bail.
Riverside County Sheriff Chad Bianco told reporters his deputies
probably did prevent a third assassination attempt against Trump and
if he was going to be accused of being dramatic we have a serious
