DORAL, Fla. — Police arrested a man accused of causing a disturbance after an encounter with the U.S. Secret Service at the Trump National Doral Miami golf club over the weekend.

A spokesperson for the Secret Service said that Alexis Mario Nordelo, 32, of northwest Miami-Dade, went up to a security screening area, “became disruptive and failed to comply with lawful orders.”

Authorities said he then “made physical contact with a member of the Secret Service,” leading Doral police to arrest him on misdemeanor disorderly conduct and resisting arrest charges.

“The President was not on site at the time of the incident,” the Secret Service spokesperson said. “At no point did this situation impact the established security posture for the President’s visit to Trump Doral National Golf Club by (the) Secret Service.”

A Doral Police Department report indicates that officers believed Nordelo was under the influence of alcohol at the time.

Records show he was released from jail the following morning after posting a $1,000 bond.
