The U.S. Secret Service announced the arrest, which occurred in Miami, Florida. The identity of the suspect has not been disclosed as charges are still being processed, but they are being held on an immigration detainer, indicating they might potentially be in the country illegally. <\/p>\n<p>Secret Service officials and <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\">local police collaborated<\/a> to apprehend the suspect following a lead, with Miami Beach Police playing a significant role in the operation.
