Washington D.C. authorities announced they made an arrest related to the stealing of Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Kristi Noem's purse at a restaurant on April 20. Another suspect was also arrested in Florida and is being held on an immigration detainer while charges are being finalized, the Secret Service added.

Concretely, Mario Bustamante Leiva was charged with two counts of robbery, although in connection with unrelated incidents that took place in recent weeks. One of them was near the restaurant in which Noem had her purse stolen.
