FORMER US President, Donald Trump has been arrested on Tuesday and in police custody ahead of his upcoming arraignment.
Trump faces charges over hush money payments made to a porn actress just ahead of the 2016 presidential election.
This is the first time in history that a former American president is facing criminal charges.
Trump did not wear handcuffs, but will have his fingerprints taken. It is unclear whether his mugshot will be taken.
On Monday, a judge had ruled to bar news outlets from broadcasting the arraignment. However, details of the charges are expected to be revealed in the coming hours.
Trump is expected to face more than 30-count charges related to business fraud as part of a probe into the $130,000 payout to Stormy Daniels, the adult actress, in an attempt to buy her silence over an alleged affair.
