NEW YORK (AP) - A man was arrested after attempting to enter a parking garage across the street from the United Nations with two loaded firearms in his vehicle, police said.

Vernon Welker, 59, was arrested Thursday on charges of criminal weapons possession after officers discovered he had a rifle, a revolver, ammunition and a knife in his car, New York Police Sgt. Mary Christine Doherty said.

Police were investigating Welker's plans, but there was no indication that he was headed for the U.N., she said.
