A West Chester, Pennsylvania, man arrested near a “No Kings” protest on Saturday has allegedly been found to be in possession of seven pipe bombs at his home, according to police.

The West Chester Police Department said 31-year-old Kevin Krebs was arrested on Saturday after members of the public told officers a man with a concealed weapon was walking near a large rally in Chester County, one of several held in communities across the country to protest President Donald Trump.

When officers identified the suspect, they stopped and questioned him before allegedly discovering he was in possession of a firearm without having a concealed carry permit.

Court documents obtained by FOX 29 in Philadelphia allege Krebs was in possession of a fully-loaded SIG Sauer handgun, knives and ammunition.

When questioned, Krebs allegedly told detectives “he wanted to go protest peacefully, but also wanted to be safe because of what he has seen on television.”

FOX 29 also reported that Krebs was released on bond initially, though on Tuesday he was taken back into custody on charges yet to be released.

The investigation into the matter is ongoing.
