A man on probation in Kentucky is facing multiple charges after he reportedly left the state without permission and physically assaulted an officer in Florida after collecting a $167.3 million Powerball jackpot.

On April 26, a man who previously served a 14-year prison sentence and is on parole until August became the recipient of half of the $167.3 million Powerball jackpot his mother won on a ticket he bought for her from a convenience store in Georgetown. On April 30, though he reportedly failed to get the required permission to leave the state, he and his girlfriend were involved in an incident at a hotel in Florida. While at the waterfront resort in St. Pete’s Beach, the man had an encounter with a patron that allegedly led to him striking the other party in the face.

A Florida man wearing a Ronald McDonald costume and reportedly found carrying a faux orange firearm was jailed after he was seen clowning around at a shopping center that he was previously kicked out of.

Since 2016, McDonald’s has diminished the presence of Ronald McDonald as the main mascot for their brand. Still, on the afternoon of March 24, the character was seen at the Interchange Plaza shopping center in Palm Bay when a man put on a Ronald costume and visited the marketplace. Dressing like the iconic clown was likely enough to catch the attention of plaza patrons. But, as noted in the police report, the man, who was reportedly previously banned from the premises, was also allegedly “yelling to himself, and was loitering.”

The authorities were notified about the situation, and just before 3:30 PM, officers from the Palm Bay Police Department went to the mall to investigate. When they arrived, they found the person in the costume standing beside a bicycle in front of a store. He was identified as a 40-year-old local man who is currently without permanent housing. The police released footage from the officers’ body-worn cameras and said it showed that the suspect was immediately uncooperative and had to be held on the ground before the officers were able to cuff him. One of the officers can also be seen removing an orange toy gun from the man’s back pocket.
