Serial Trump trespasser arrested again at Mar-a-Lago
An alleged serial trespasser who’s attempted to sneak into Mar-a-Lago multiple times was busted again at President-elect Donald Trump’s Florida compound Thursday.
Zijie Li, 39, was nabbed on Thursday on charges of trespass after warning after trying to reach the Palm Beach estate in a rideshare, NBC Miami reported.
His bond was set at $100,000 on Friday.
Li, of El Monte, has tried to break through security at Mar-a-Lago multiple times because he wanted to speak with Trump, according to authorities.
Li was first given a trespass warning on July 19 for trying to sneak into Mar-a-Lago, per NBC.
He returned to Palm Beach four other times – even driving up to a checkpoint – but did not attempt to enter, the outlet said, citing the arrest report.
Li put paperwork about Trump on cars around the area on July 30. He was arrested again for trespassing at Mar-a-Lago the following day.
Li, who is originally from China, allegedly told Secret Service that he had information that China was linked to the July 13 assassination attempt on Trump at a Pennsylvania rally.
A few months later, on Oct. 30, Li was put under Florida’s Baker Act – which allows for involuntary mental health treatment – when he tried to access Mar-a-Lago again with help from a resident.
He was released on bond, with the condition of being 500 feet away from Trump and Mar-a-Lago.
Li allegedly disobeyed that order when he attempted to reach the property in a rideshare on Thursday.
After two public attempts on his life and ahead of his return to the White House, Trump beefed up security at Mar-a-Lago with a Secret Service robot dog, photos showed on Friday.
The robotic canine was seen strolling on the grass among the palm trees outside the residence – with a large warning on the side cautioning “DO NOT PET.”
