According to WPVI, police received a tip that a group, “possibly a family,” drove up from Virginia in a Hummer “to unleash an attack at the Convention Center.”

Police arrested one man, though it is not clear if the man detained was part of the group.

The Philadelphia Police Department did not immediately respond to Insider’s request for comment. But the department told WPVI that it had recovered both a weapon and a Hummer.
