“Police searched the Northern Virginia home of activist Adam Kokesh Tuesday evening and took him into custody on for allegedly being in possession of hallucinogenic mushroom while also having a gun, authorities said. ‘Numerous police vehicles, including a light armored vehicle and two low-flying helicopters barricaded Adam’s street,’ the news release says. ‘More than 20 armored SWAT team members surrounded the house, as well as a number of detectives, and plainclothes officers.’ The release says police used a battering ram to knock in the front door and detonated a flash grenade in the foyer, then ransacked the house in a five-hour search.”
