An anti-Trump protester has been arrested for running in front of the former president’s motorcade as he left court Tuesday afternoon.

The demonstrator was seen wearing a prison uniform and carrying a sign reading ‘Lock him up’ when he tried to rush the SUV.

Video posted online showed the motorcade traveling down a Miami street, where supporters and protesters were lined up on both sides, when the unidentified man approached the black vehicle.

Agents immediately ran over and grabbed the man, pushing him back on the sidewalk.

But soon, all chaos broke out as people started screaming and chasing after the president’s vehicle.

The incident came just hours after  

City officials had said they were prepared for a crowd of 5,000 to 50,000 people in the downtown area that houses the Wilkie D. Ferguson Jr. United States Federal Courthouse. 

A combination of local, state and federal law enforcement were on hand with trucks of police in riot gear arriving on the scene Tuesday morning. Barriers and police tape were also put up to control the crowds and helicopters flew overhead. 

The former president was also protected by his Secret Service detail.
