MAN WITH WEAPONS AND POSSIBLE EXPLOSIVES ARRESTED, SAID HE WAS GOING TO L.A. GAY PRIDE PARADE, LA Times reports.

UPDATE: Southern California NBC affiliate contradicts the L.A. Times’ report: “Despite an earlier report from Santa Monica’s police chief, the man did not indicate he was targeting LA’s PRIDE festivities, only that he intended to go to the event.”
