Secret Service agents were quick to stop Santana when he rushed in front of Trump's car as fellow detractors and supporters were lined up on both sides of the street for the GOP frontrunner's arraignment on federal charges in a case involving the handling of classified documents. Trump pleaded not guilty to 37 federal charges.

Video was captured as Santana was cuffed and brought to the ground. One bystander could be seen flinging his red hat at the protester before they were able to fully subdue him.

As a crowd gathered including hecklers, he embraced his fate and said, "Lock me up."

It's unclear whether or not Santana was charged over the incident.

Earlier that day, cops shut off a block outside the Wilkie D. Ferguson Jr. United States Federal Courthouse due to discovering a "suspicious package" before Trump's arrival.

A bomb squad was called in, but an all-clear was given after no threat was detected.

This afternoon, Trump took his motorcade from the federal courthouse to a local Cuban restaurant and bought everyone lunch while some customers sang him "Happy Birthday" in honor of him turning 77 on June 14.
