Man arrested after walking into Atlanta grocery store with 6 guns, body armor [View all]

ATLANTA, Georgia — A man armed with six weapons and and also body armor walked into a grocery store Wednesday, an unsettling incident just two days after 10 people were killed in a mass shooting at a Colorado grocery store.

The manager of a Publix store called police at 1:30 p.m. after the man walked in carrying a long rifle and went straight to a restroom, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports. When the man exited the restroom, he was quickly taken into custody, police tell the Journal-Constitution.

Rico Marley, 22, was charged with reckless conduct after the incident, NBC News reports. It’s unclear what his motive was and he is undergoing a psychiatric evaluation.

Police reportedly found six weapons on Marley, including two long rifles and four handguns.
