A suspect was arrested in connection with threats made against state lawmakers who planned to attend Saturday's "No Kings" protest at the Texas Capitol in Austin, according to the Texas Department of Public Safety.

The Texas State Capitol and surrounding grounds are temporarily closed to the public on the afternoon of Saturday, June 14 after the Texas Department of Public Safety confirmed the agency had fielded a "credible threat" targeting state lawmakers attending the No Kings, Kick Out the Clowns protest slated for later in the evening.

A massive crowd of protesters against President Trump filled the Texas state Capitol in Austin, hours after the grounds were evacuated for what authorities called a “credible threat” against state legislators.
