Augustus Sol Invictus, a white nationalist thrown out of an organization labeled a hate group because his views were too extreme, was arrested in Florida on a warrant for kidnapping, domestic violence, and gun possession. Invictus is notorious for drinking goat blood in a pagan ritual during his failed 2016 campaign for U.S. Senate. He was a scheduled speaker at the 2017 white supremacist rally in Charlottesville, Virginia. His Monday arrest on a warrant out of South Carolina was first reported by journalist Nick Martin and confirmed by the Miami Herald; details of the alleged crime were not immediately available.
