Capitol Police said the man was 71 years old and was charged with carrying a pistol without a license, possession of unregistered ammunition and unlawful possession of a firearm. He was arrested after a Capitol Police officer noticed him parallel parked in the middle of the intersection of Second Street and Washington Avenue SW, they said in a statement.

The officer asked the man if there was a gun in the vehicle, to which he said one was in the center console, police said.

Wow, all of 20 rounds. Not exactly the insurrectionist type, just an old man going to the VA probably with his personal protection gun.

Lots of lessons here about things not to do, starting by going into DC...

Clearly DC needs stricter gun control laws.

These old-timers can’t keep up with all the rules....

That makes them enemies of the state.

"possession of unregistered ammunition"

You have to register your ammunition now?

“charged with carrying a pistol without a license”

Without a license? I wasn’t aware the 2nd was repealed.

71 years old? Probably forgot it was in car.

“possession of unregistered ammunition”?

How do you register ammo; last time I checked, none of my ammo has a serial number on each individual round!

"unregistered ammunition"

OMG!
The horror...

"parallel parked"

Yes!
More troops needed in DC to protect our benevolent rulers... Tanks needed also...

Why would the Officer ask him if there was a Gun in the Car?

Is that something new when you Illegally Park your Car now?

Is that a question a Meter Maid would ask while writing a Ticket?

I’m 71 and carry with no problem here in Missouri. Only 20 round means I do not have my shoulder holster on.
