A costumed protester who jumped in front of Donald Trump’s motorcade as it left federal court in Miami has been arrested and is now facing multiple charges.
According to the arrest report, Domenic Santana, 61, stopped traffic as the former president’s motorcade was leaving federal court in downtown Miami.
In the images it was possible to see when the man was removed by the police and immediately apprehended.
The charges he will now face are disorderly conduct and breach of the peace, resisting authority without violence, and obstruction of traffic, the arrest report states.
According to officials, Santana, who was disguised in a black and white striped suit resembling that of a prisoner, blocked the path of the caravan and made one of the trucks swerve to avoid colliding with him. “The defendant’s actions in disrupting the caravan endangered the life of the former president,” the arrest report states.
Santana was seen several times holding his “lock him up” sign, demonstrating outside the courthouse and exchanging words with some Trump supporters.
Trump pleaded not guilty to all 37 federal felony counts in the landmark criminal case for allegedly taking secret classified documents from the White House, showing them to his visitors and trying to hide them from investigators demanding their return.
