Another wannabe domestic terrorist arrested in Spokane

SPOKANE, Wash. -


In an interview from the Spokane County Jail Saturday, Nicholas McRae explained why he ran from police after they tried to pull him over, and why he was so heavily armed.

"I thought I might have been able to get away and get rid of the gun," said McRae speaking exclusively to KHQ.

McRae says he got the AK-47 off the streets right here in Spokane and police say he was pointing it out of the window of his Chrysler 300. That's when the police performed a PIT maneuver to disable McRae's car. It took several officers to take McRae into custody. According to police he said he wanted to "clean up the streets" but McRae is denying that he said that.

"I think they misconstrued what I was saying," McRae said.

He is claiming that he was carrying the guns in self-defense after he was stabbed back in January even though he knows he is not supposed to carry any firearms.
