A man dressed in full camouflage clothing was arrested in Norwalk with an airsoft gun that resembled an AK-47 assault rifle, authorities say.

Police say they arrested Brandon Wagshol, known for his “extensive and violent history," after he was found lying down in public next to an airsoft gun on Thursday morning. 

Wagshol was previously arrested in 2019 and had showed interest in mass shootings but was released on bond.
