Man with gun arrested, mentioned White House:
Baltimore police arrested a 25-year-old man with a gun at a MARC station after he supposedly mentioned the White House to cab driver.
Police say when the cab driver spotted the butt of a rifle sticking out of a towel Asa Seeley was carrying, he dropped Seeley at a train station and flagged down police.
Seeley got off the train as officers boarded, left the rifle behind and jumped to the platform. He injured his ankle in the fall at the station near Franklin and Mulberry streets around 7 a.m.
Baltimore Police Commissioner Frederick Bealefeld said investigators believe Seeley was trying to make his way back to his D.C. residence and might have been mentioning the White House as a landmark to orient the cab driver.
