MELBOURNE, FL โ A white nationalist who ran for the U.S. Senate in Florida and was a featured speaker during the 2017 โUnite the Rightโ rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, was arrested on charges of kidnapping, domestic violence and possession of a firearm during a crime of violence. Augustus Sol Invictus, 36, was arrested Monday at a Florida mall by Brevard County Sheriff's deputies on a warrant issued out of South Carolina, the Miami Herald reported. Jail records show that Invictus is being held without bond and is to appear before a judge on Jan. 15.
