A man was arrested after he pulled a gun on pro-immigration demonstrators during a rally in Huntsville, Alabama, according to AL.com.
The man, Shane Ryan Sealy, had been shouting "womp, womp" at supporters of the rally. Police said Sealy picked a fight with a demonstrator, which became physical, and when the protestor knocked Sealy down, he pulled out the gun.
Sealy did not fire the weapon and no injuries were reported. He was charged with menacing and reckless endangerment, as well as possessing a firearm within 1,000 feet of a protest.
The demonstration in Huntsville on Saturday was one of numerous nationwide "Families Belong Together" protests against Trump's "zero tolerance" border policies.
Sealy started shouting "womp, womp," while a priest gave a prayer to protestors, according to The Washington Post.
The phrase was used by former Trump campaign manager Corey Lewandowski during a Fox News interview about children of undocumented migrants who illegally crossed the border being separated from their parents.
Although Lewandowski was criticized for a remark many considered sarcastic and without empathy, it appears as if it inspired at least some Trump supporters, according to the Post.
Sealy also held a sign on which was written "ICE ICE Baby."
When he pulled the gun, rally organizer Ava Caldwell told WBTV that there was widespread panic at the rally as many people dropped to the ground.
Police then approached Sealy in cars from different angles and arrested him.
