Police arrested Brad Parscale Sunday, following reports that he was suicidal and physically abusive toward his wife, Candice. Parscale, the former Trump campaign manager and an architect of the president's digital strategy, was hospitalized, posing a danger to himself and those around him.


Body-cam footage of the altercation soon followed. Released by the South Florida Sun Sentinal, the video reveals Parscale's wife, with cuts and bruises on her body, telling police that her husband had been drinking heavily, threatening suicide and armed. Police requested that he come outside unarmed. Moments later, SWAT team members tackled a shirtless Parscale to the ground. The found 10 firearms in his residence.

The incident began Sunday afternoon, following an argument between the couple, during which time Candice says her husband loaded a handgun. She escaped the house and told a nearby real estate agent, showing a house in the area, to call the police.

On the 911 call, the real estate agent can be heard remarking: "Oh no, did he do that? Oh my gosh, your arms, both your arms, has he been hurting you?"

Authorities hospitalized Parscale under Florida's Baker Act, which allows police to detain a person that they believe poses a risk to themselves.

According to the Washington Post, in his home, police recovered five handguns, two rifles, two shotguns and a small revolver.

In a statement on Monday, the Trump campaign spokesman Tim Murtaugh said, "Our thoughts are with Brad and his family as we wait for all the facts to emerge." The Washington Post continues:

In a different statement Sunday, Murtaugh also offered support to Parscale, whom he called “a member of our family.” But after the president had been briefed on the incident, Murtaugh updated his initial statement, using Parscale’s personal situation as a cudgel to attack Trump’s political rivals.

“The disgusting, personal attacks from Democrats and disgruntled RINOs have gone too far, and they should be ashamed of themselves for what they’ve done to this man and his family,” Murtaugh said in his statement, referring to Republicans in Name Only, or RINOs, a dismissive term for Republicans who do not support the party’s policies or candidates.

Earlier this year, Jared Kushner, senior advisor to the president and Trump's son-in-law, demoted Parscale from his role as campaign manager. According to reports, Trump blames Parscale for the lackluster attendance of Trump's controversial Tulsa campaign rally in June. Parscale previously claimed that there were more than 1 million RSVPs for the event. Only 6,000 attended.
