However, before the sun had set, he was in handcuffs and being escorted out of Crypto.com Arena by the Los Angeles Police Department.

Video of the arrest went viral on the social media platform X.

No details were available Monday morning about the altercation.

The 48-year-old Render headlines this past week when he said he felt disillusioned when it came to national politics and this year’s presidential election.

A viral TikTok from USA Today showed him being asked how closely he was following the presidential race.

“I’m not,” Render said.

As a 2016 surrogate for then-candidate Bernie Sanders, Render was vocal about supporting the independent Vermont senator’s policies and ideas.

But he told USA Today he sees the current state of politics as a “dirty soap opera” and that he would remain quiet and vote for who he saw as the best candidate.

Render also said that he was a fan of independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and encouraged those watching to be passionate about local and state elections.
