During a visit to Arlington National Cemetery for a wreath laying ceremony, two members of Donald Trump's campaign staff were involved in a verbal and physical altercation with a cemetery official. The incident occurred as the Trump team attempted to film and photograph in a section where recent U.S. casualties are buried, which the official tried to prevent. The cemetery has rules against political activities, including photography, in sensitive areas. Arlington National Cemetery confirmed the incident and stated that a report was filed. The Trump campaign has denied the allegations, suggesting the official had a 'mental health episode.'
