A 37 year old man arrested for allegedly planning to shoot up Washington music festival
Deputies arrested a Washington man who may have had plans to commit a mass shooting during a concert at the Gorge Amphitheater Friday night.
People attending the "Bass Canyon Festival" reported a suspicious man in the parking area to security officers, according to a Grant County Sheriff's Office news release.
Witnesses say they saw the man, who was later identified as 31-year-old Jonathan R. Moody, who had filled unknown gas from a balloon, and had 9mm pistols from the boot of his car and tuck both weapons inside his waistband.
According to the witnesses the suspect then allegedly asked people what time the concert ended and where people would be exiting the venue. The security personnel detained the suspect outside the venue gates and disarmed him of the two loaded 9mm pistols.
