A woman was arrested in Florida over the weekend for allegedly attacking Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) at an event that the congressman was attending with his wife.

The Walton County Sheriff’s Office confirmed the report in a statement on Tuesday afternoon, saying that officers “responded to an incident at an event in Miramar Beach Saturday involving Representative Matt Gaetz.”

“A 41-year-old Tallahassee woman, Selena Chambers, was arrested after it was found she intentionally threw a glass of wine at Representative Gaetz after shouting obscenities at him,” police said. “She was charged with battery on an elected official and issued a $1,000 bond. She was released the following day.”

Gaetz said in a statement that Chambers is a “registered Democrat and self-described member of the ‘Resistance.’”

“I will never allow the safety of Northwest Floridians to be compromised,” Gaetz said. “I will be pressing charges against this individual in order to uphold the civility our community deserves. Thank you to the Walton County Sheriff’s office for taking swift action.”
