A man has been charged with jumping over an outter wall at President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida this week.
Bijan Arceo, 32, was charged with trespassing with the intent to commit an offense. Palm Beach police officers responded to the club just after 6 p.m. Tuesday to assist Secret Service agents who detained someone on the property, a police affidavit obtained by Fox News Digital states.

Police said Arceo got inside the resort from South Ocean Boulevard by the north service gate, police said.
Arceo had not entered the sweep area or had been granted permission to enter the protected site, the Secret Service said.
“While the incident had no impact on our protective operations, we take these matters extremely seriously,” the agency said in a statement to Fox News Digital. “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.”
Around the property were numerous signs that state “No Trespassing,” with tall gates that remain closed when not in use, authorities said.
Arceo is being held in the Palm Beach County jail on a $20,000 bond, according to jail records.
