"A suspect arrested Sunday with an assault rifle at a Washington, DC pizzeria admitted he had come to investigate an online conspiracy theory, Washington's Metropolitan Police Department said Sunday evening in a statement.
Police have identified him as 28-year-old Edgar Maddison Welch of Salisbury, North Carolina.
"During a post arrest interview this evening, the suspect revealed that he came to the establishment to self-investigate 'Pizza Gate' (a fictitious online conspiracy theory)," the police department said in a statement.
"Pizza Gate" is a name given to the online false news stories begun last month that charged the Comet Ping Pong restaurant and its owner were involved in a child sex operation. The owner has vehemently denied the charges, but they continued to proliferate online. The owner and employees said they were repeatedly threatened on social media.

People are going to get hurt and killed someday over this stuff.
I realize some of you do not like the so caled "main stream media
" but gotta tell you as someone who reads it all, it is pretty much mostly accurate and they do no report stuff like this that you can read on the various hate sites and frankly what is scary is that our new President elect does it.
I am wiling to and have said it to give Trump a chance but this kind of stuff is juvenile and scary.

The owner of this pizzeria and his employees have had their lives threatened. Wonder who the shooter voted for?
Trump doesn't need security briefings. He told us he only has to rely on his brain and he knows more than the generals. Why waste time going to briefings when he could be tweeting?
