A jogger runs past a barricade prohibiting access to a street near the Charlotte Convention Center, site of the Republican National Convention in Charlotte, N.C., on Monday, Aug. 24, 2020. Charlotte-Mecklenburg police used fencing, concrete barriers and heavy vehicles to block access to streets around the convention center.


CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Several protesters and a person who illegally entered a secure area before the start of the Republican National Convention have been arrested, convention officials and police said Monday.

RNC security officials said in a tweet that the unidentified person was arrested after entering the security perimeter outside the Charlotte Convention Center, where the convention is being held. They said the person didn’t enter an area where delegates were present or disrupt any events. They did not say when the transgression happened, and Charlotte-Mecklenburg police didn’t respond to an email seeking additional information, including what charges the person is facing.

GOP officials voted to renominate President Donald Trump in a small in-person session at the convention center Monday.
