Protester tackled and arrested for rushing at Trump's motorcade with a protest sign after arraignment in Miami

Social media videos captured the moment an anti-Trump protester was tackled and arrested for rushing at the former president's motorcade with a protest sign after his arraignment at a courthouse in Miami, Florida.

Former President Donald Trump was placed under arrest and pleaded not guilty to 37 federal charges related to his keeping White House documents his presidency at his Mar-a-Lago residence from.

As the former president was driven away from the courthouse, a man dressed in prisoner garb ran in front of his vehicle with a large protest sign.

Security immediately tackled the man and moved him out of the way to allow the motorcade to continue.

Video showed another man slap him in the face with what appeared to be a Trump hat as police arrested the protester.

Prior to the arrest, the protester had identified himself as Dominic Santana, a Cuban-American retiree, to the Independent.

“Hopefully, someday he has to be locked up. He should have been locked up a long, long time ago. He’s gotten away with it. He’s the master of spin, either graduate from New York School of Rats and he has a master’s degree and he knows how to spin it. He’s going to spin it on this one," said Santana.

“He has his case made up. He doesn’t need lawyers to defend him. He already knows the spin," he added.

Hundreds of pro-Trump supporters and anti-Trump counter-protesters showed up at the arraignment and clashed during several incidents. At one point, the bomb squad was called to investigate a suspicious item, but it was a false alarm.

Another man showed up at the courthouse with the severed head of a pig on a stick with an American flag sticking out of its mouth. When asked, he didn't say whether he supported or opposed the charges against Trump.

“I’m here to have fun,” he said to reporters.

Here's some video of the protester's arrest:
