Individual Detained at Trump National Doral for Alleged Secret Service Altercation

A man was taken into custody at the Trump National Doral Golf Club in Florida on Tuesday after reportedly clashing with Secret Service agents, causing a disturbance, and making physical contact with one of the agents, as confirmed by authorities.

The incident unfolded around 4:15 p.m. when the individual approached a security checkpoint manned by Secret Service personnel and local law enforcement, according to a statement released by the Secret Service’s Miami field office.

Authorities stated that the man became unruly and did not comply with instructions.

“During the encounter, the individual became disruptive and failed to comply with lawful orders,” said Acting Special Agent in Charge Michael Townsend. “He then made physical contact with a member of the Secret Service and was taken into custody without further incident.”

Footage from the scene captures the moment the man was arrested. In the video, a bystander can be heard commenting that the man being detained was “getting the business now.”

Authorities did not immediately release the man’s identity.

Doral police arrested the man at the scene and charged him with disorderly conduct and resisting without violence.

Authorities said the situation was quickly contained and did not affect security operations at the property.

“The president was not on site at the time of the incident,” Townsend said. “At no point did this situation impact the established security posture for any upcoming visits to Trump Doral National Golf Club by Secret Service protectees.”

Officials directed further questions about the suspect and charges to the Doral Police Department.
