A Florida woman was arrested after police said she drove through a closed Secret Service security checkpoint near President Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago estate, setting off a pursuit and standoff in Palm Beach.
The woman was identified as 29-year-old Alexa Rae Scharf of Loxahatchee, Florida. The incident unfolded Tuesday evening, 25 August, and led to a temporary closure of South Ocean Boulevard as officers responded to the scene to arrest her.
