Alec Baldwin has landed himself in some trouble in NYC, after the actor allegedly punched a man in the face after getting into a very heated argument over a parking spot, TMZ reports. Witnesses at the scene told TMZ that the actor argued with the unnamed man near 10th Street and 5th Avenue, after the man took the spot that was being held for Baldwin by a family member.

Law enforcement claim Alec Baldwin got pretty heated during the altercation, with one witness telling TMZ that Baldwin yelled "Fuck off" during the fight. Cops were called following the fight and Baldwin was arrested shortly after. The Blast reports that he's currently being processed at the NYPD's 6th Precinct station house in Greenwich Village, and will likely be charged with misdemeanor assault.

It didn't take long, but Donald Trump Jr. heard about the news and shared his thoughts on Twitter. "Is anyone shocked at this piece of garbage anymore?" he asked. "As if the phone calls to his daughter weren't bad enough. He's a lib so he gets chance after chance to be decent but always fails!"

Is anyone shocked at this piece of garbage anymore? As if the phone calls to his daughter weren’t bad enough. He’s a lib so he gets chance after chance to be decent but always fails!
