A Sarasota man was arrested Thursday night after he drove a stolen car to Mar-a-Lago in an attempt to meet with President-elect Donald Trump.

Farbod Dolat, 52, was taken into custody following his unauthorized attempt to enter the president-elect's Palm Beach estate, as WWSB reports.

Details provided by law enforcement reveal that Dolat arrived at Mar-a-Lago in a vehicle that was not his own.

The car, a rental, was registered under a woman’s name who later reported the vehicle stolen.

An Unexpected Visitor at Trump's Estate

The woman, whose identity has been withheld, told police that she was at a bank withdrawing money when Dolat took off with her car.

She immediately reported the incident to the police.

The woman alerted law enforcement that the vehicle had been taken without her permission.

Responding officers apprehended Dolat at the estate's security checkpoint, where he disclosed his intention to speak with the president-elect.

However, he was promptly detained before he could make any contact.

This incident has been noted as the third arrest at Mar-a-Lago since summer, pointing to increased security challenges at the site.

Charges Filed Against Sarasota Man

Further investigations confirmed the car’s status as stolen through reports filed with the Sarasota County Sheriff’s Office.

Subsequently, Dolat faced multiple charges, including vehicle theft and operating a motor vehicle without a valid license.

The charges underline the severity of the offense, especially given the high-security context of the attempted destination.

The judicial process for Dolat is underway, as he awaits a court hearing to respond to the charges laid against him.

Security Concerns at High-Profile Locations

This event marks a continuing trend of security incidents at Mar-a-Lago, previously a private club turned into a significant political site since Trump’s engagement in politics began.

The repeated breaches have prompted discussions about security measures at properties associated with political figures.

Unfortunately, such locations are increasingly becoming focal points for unauthorized attempts to contact or confront.

Law enforcement and security agencies are likely to reassess and fortify security protocols in light of recent events.
