On June 14, 2025, the 'No Kings' rally took place at the Historic Courthouse in West Chester, Pennsylvania, as part of protests against President Trump's mass deportation policies.

During the rally, an armed man was arrested near North High Street after members of the public alerted police about his concealed firearm.

Police conducted a pedestrian stop and discovered that the man was in possession of an unlicensed firearm and lacked a concealed carry permit.

Citizen video footage captured police removing a handgun and several magazines from the suspect at High and Gay streets, close to the rally.

The Chester County Sheriff's Office and the FBI are assisting the West Chester Police Department in the ongoing investigation.

Fortunately, no injuries were reported during this incident, and the investigation continues.

Authorities have not disclosed the identity of the arrested man, but confirmed that no injuries occurred.

West Chester Police Public Information Officer Dave March stated that the department is actively investigating the incident and will provide updates soon.

The West Chester Borough Police Department is encouraging anyone with additional information about the incident to contact them.

MediaNews Group is working to obtain and verify video from a private Facebook page related to the incident.

The arrest and the events surrounding it have prompted a response from the West Chester Borough Police Department, especially after video footage circulated on social media.

These protests coincided with a military parade in Washington, D.C., celebrating the 250th anniversary of the United States Army.
