A vehicle crashed near the steps of Los Angeles City Hall shortly after 4 p.m. on Friday, prompting an evacuation of the building and road closures in the area, according to authorities.
The driver remained in his car during a nearly two-hour standoff with police, until he voluntarily emerged shortly before 6 p.m. and was taken into custody. A crisis team with the Los Angeles Police Department spoke with the driver by phone before he walked to 1st and Spring streets, where he was handcuffed by officers, according to KTLA.
Helicopter footage appeared to show there were two posters on the car’s dashboard and an oxygen tank in the passenger seat. The posters appeared to have the written messages, “Don’t want to hurt no body,” and “I need ur help D. Trump U.S. Vet.”
