The Buffalo Police Department released body camera video Tuesday after an incident on April 14 when officers assisted the United States Marshals Service in the apprehension of a warrant suspect.
BPD said when the US Marshals and officers were serving the indictment warrant, the suspect allegedly ran out of a window inside a home and jumped onto the roofs, then onto a garage then onto the ground, and started running.
Rep. Byron Donalds (R-FL) held an event in Estero, Florida, on Monday, where residents of his district expressed their anger over drastic cuts to government agencies that many count on for services.
When he came into office, President Donald Trump created the Department of Government Efficiency by executive order and tasked tech billionaire Elon Musk with finding things to cut. That initiative has been behind the upheaval and dismantling of government agencies. Websites, grants, programs, and employees have been cut or frozen under the promise that Trump will save taxpayers trillions.
Speaking to CNN's Boris Sanchez on Tuesday, chief congressional correspondent Manu Raju called it a "pretty remarkable scene" that Donalds responded to angry constituents by yelling at them.

"I mean, the question is, how broad is this among the electorate?" he questioned. "We've seen this happen time and time again. Are these Democratic voters who are coming out there expressing their outrage, and probably in a lot of cases, yes. Are there independent voters who are moved by what Donald Trump has been doing, what DOGE has been doing, impacts on their lives, on the tariffs and prices? Are those the ones that are raising concerns? Or are they Trump voters? Are they people who are concerned about the person they voted for into office here?"
He also noted that Donalds' district is in "a very conservative area." He recalled that in 2024, Trump carried the district by 30 points.
"Even that county, where that town hall was in yesterday, Trump won that by 30 points," cited Raju. "So, this is a conservative area. What does it say for the broader electorate? We'll see. But it was interesting."
He pointed to another moment in which Donalds was asked about Musk and others gaining access to personal Social Security files. When he read the question aloud, the crowd cheered.
Donalds answered that Musk and DOGE "have been authorized by the president of the United States."
The crowd booed loudly.
