A man in Florida has been arrested after he reportedly climbed over the wall around Mar-a-Lago in West Palm Beach. He was charged with trespassing with the intent to commit a crime.

According to Fox News, Bijan Arceo, 32, was detained by police officers at around 6 pm on Tuesday after US Secret Service (USSS) caught the alleged trespasser. Police reported that Arceo was able to get inside the Mar-a-Lago estate by the north service gate.

"While the incident had no impact on our protective operations, we take these matters extremely seriously," the USSS said in a statement. "This arrest is being handled at the local level and we remain thankful to the Town of Palm Beach Police Department for their quick response and partnership."

There were numerous "no trespassing" signs around the property and the gates that were closed, being out of use. Arceo was taken into custody and remains held in Palm Beach County jail on a bond of $20,000, per the outlet.

In July, Zijie Li was arrested for trespassing at the Mar-a-Lago estate and on Trump's nearby golf course. Would-be assassin Ryan Routh took a rifle where he allegedly attempted to assassinate Trump on September 15, 2024, during the campaign. He is currently in jail awaiting a trial.

Also in July, would-be assassin Thomas Matthew Crooks took several shots at Trump at a rally in Butler, PA but only hit his ear as he turned his head during a rally. One man was killed and others were injured.
