Police sources told the New York Post Tuesday morning that Secret Service agents stopped Wang — a student at Baruch College in NYC — after he walked into Trump Tower just after 6:30 pm, EST.

Agents searched Wang’s bag and found a water gun, handcuffs, a “large” knife and fireworks.

Additional fireworks were found in his dorm room on Baruch College’s campus.

Police say Wang did not resist arrest.

This isn’t the first time, Trump’s high-rise has been targeted by potential activists. (RELATED: Watch Some Guy Climb The Side Of Trump Tower)
