RFK, Jr. Assassination Attempt Foiled

Quick thinking on behalf of Presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.’s security team thwarted an assassination attempt in Los Angeles last week. Kennedy was scheduled to speak at a National Hispanic Heritage Month event at the Wilshire Ebell Theater when a man showed up with a fake U.S. Marshals badge, a fake federal I.D., and real guns, claiming he was part of Kennedy’s security team and demanding to see him.

Members of Kennedy’s security team spotted the ruse right away and called the police. LAPD officers arrived soon after and apprehended the suspect, who has been identified as Adrian Paul Aispuro. He was wearing two shoulder holsters with loaded guns in each.
