A teenage Donald Trump supporter was arrested this week after he allegedly threatened two Kamala Harris supporters with a machete outside a Florida voting site.
Caleb James Williams, 18, was charged with felony aggravated assault on a person 65 or older and misdemeanor exhibition of a dangerous weapon.
Neptune Beach Police Chief Michael Key Jr. said that the suspect and seven other teens drove to a Jacksonville suburb with the intention “to protest and antagonize the opposing political side” on Tuesday afternoon.
The group arrived at a library carrying Trump flags and started yelling at a group of Harris supporters.
Photos from the scene showed Williams smiling and “brandishing a machete in an aggressive, threatening posture over his head.”
The machete was two-feet long and the opposite group consisted of older women aged 54 and 71.
“This goes way beyond expressing freedom of speech,” Key said. “To say your piece is your First Amendment protected right, but that goes out the window the moment you raise a machete over your head.”
