BOSTON (MyFoxBoston.com) –Two men have been arrested after allegedly threatening violence to attendees at the Pokemon World Championship in Boston.
 A release  from the Boston Police Department says they were notified of the social media on threats Thursday and were able to stop the two suspects as they attempted to enter the event a few hours later.
 Detectives discovered that the two men had driven from Iowa with several guns in their vehicle that they did not have licenses for.
 Police later searched the vehicle and found a 12-gauge shotgun, an AR-15, several hundred rounds of ammunition and a hunting knife.

 

Scary stuff. Thankfully for all attending the Police were aware and able to prevent anything from happening
 

Crazy. I don't really know what else to say.

Apparently there is a chance that it's all a big misunderstanding...

Hopefully that's the case because no attack plans in the first place would be even better.
