Cole Allen, 31, of Torrance, California, is accused of entering the Washington Hilton while armed with multiple weapons and attempting to reach the ballroom where President Trump was attending the dinner alongside Cabinet officials and journalists Saturday night.

According to the U.S. Department of Justice, Allen appeared in court wearing a blue jail uniform and faces charges including attempted assassination of the President of the United States, discharge of a firearm during a crime of violence, and transporting a firearm across state lines.

When he was arrested, the newly unsealed probable cause affidavit revealed that he had a 12-gauge pump-action shotgun and a Rock Island Armory 1911 .38-caliber pistol.

Late-night host Jimmy Kimmel apologized for his “roast” of First Lady Melania Trump, saying that people misunderstood his joke about her being “an expectant widow.” In his opening monologue of “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” on Monday night, Kimmel refused to accept any responsibility or offer an actual apology.
