Senator Tim Kaine's Son Interrupts Protest For Donald Trump, Gets Arrested On Second-Degree Riot Suspicion

Police arrested the son of Virginia Senator Tim Kaine, who took part of disturbing a pro-Donald Trump protest. The authorities took the 24-year-old son of the politician in custody due to suspicion of felony second-degree riot.

The youngest son of the senator, Linwood Michael Kaine did not take part in the protest called "March 4 Trump" but he and four more people were taken into custody in St. Paul, Minnesota for interrupting the event. The protest took place on Saturday and Ramsey County Sheriff's Office confirmed the report about Linwood's arrest.

Linwood was released from custody on Monday morning and no charges were filed against him or his four other companions. However, police continued to investigate the matter. St. Paul Police Department also said in their incident report Linwood was one of the people dressed in black clothing from head to toe who entered the State Capitol to set off fireworks and smoke bombs, NBC News reported.

St. Paul Police Department spokesman Steve Linders said they saw the suspects near a park and the group fled in different directions. They then ordered Linwood to the ground but he refused. They then used chemical irritant as he continued to resist the officers as well as a knee strike to subdue him.

During the "March 4 Trump" event, around 300 protesters rallied for the president before the disturbance broke out. Fifty anti-Trump protesters started a fight with the pro-Trump protesters before arrests were made.

The Senator and his wife, Anne Holton, released a message regarding Linwood's arrest. They said, "We love that our three children have their own views and concerns about current political issues. They fully understand the responsibility to express those concerns peacefully." Tim was the running mate of presidential hopeful Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton during the last election, The Washington Post shared.

Other protests for Trump took place all over the country. Counter protests were also recorded in different areas.
