A woman was arrested on Sunday at the Peace Bridge in Buffalo as she was trying to cross into the United States. She is a suspect in the White House ricin incident from Saturday. While information is slim at this point, it was stated that she had a gun on her person. She is also suspected of sending the ricin to Texas officials.
UPDATE:
The Canadian woman charged for sending ricin to President Trump & law enforcement agencies in Texas was previously deported. Pascale Ferrier tried to cross back into the US on Sunday & was found carrying a gun. She recently tweeted about killing Trump. https://t.co/nvACsTHsTP pic.twitter.com/EnuKaViQwY

As this is an active investigation we cannot comment further.”
