There were two security incidents at the U.S. Supreme Court in the same hour Wednesday, CBS News has learned.
Minutes before guns were seized from a Georgia man's van near the Supreme Court complex Wednesday afternoon, a California man was arrested for claiming he had "higher authority" and attempting to unlawfully enter the high court's north door.
According to newly filed court documents obtained by CBS News, Melvin Marbrey, 73, told Supreme Court police he was at the Court to meet with Chief Justice John Roberts and "would not leave (until) he was allowed into the building." According to a police affidavit, Marbrey falsely identified himself as having "higher authority" and showed a congressional report as so-called proof. He told officers, "I'm going inside or you do what you have to do."
