Wisconsin congressional candidate arrested in antisemitic road rage incident
Police say Matthew Arndt was arrested on a disorderly conduct charge with a hate crime enhancer after a road rage confrontation over an anti-Hamas sticker.
- On Thursday, Mequon police arrested Green Party congressional candidate Matthew Arndt on a disorderly conduct charge with a hate crime enhancer following a road rage incident in the Milwaukee suburb.
- Arndt allegedly tailgated a 40-year-old Israeli immigrant on Mequon Road, sparking the confrontation over an anti-Hamas bumper sticker displayed on the victim's vehicle.
- Video footage shows Arndt shouting "f*** Israel" and "Free Palestine" while demanding the driver post the altercation on social media. His comments included profane language and antisemitic statements.
- The Wisconsin Green Party condemned the behavior as not advancing their cause, while Republican U.S. Rep. Glenn Grothman called it an "embarrassment to the entire state." Formal charges remain under review by the Ozaukee County District Attorney.
- Under Wisconsin law, a hate crime enhancer on a disorderly conduct misdemeanor raises the maximum penalty to a $10,000 fine and one year in jail if Arndt is convicted.
