On Nov. 9, Arcidiacono was arrested and accused of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon after he was identified as the person who threw two unopened cans of White Claw, a brand of hard seltzer, at Cruz while the senator was riding on a float during the parade.After his arrest, Arcidiacono's lawyers said that while he did throw the cans, he didn't intend to hurt Cruz. Rather, Arcidiacono said he was trying to share the drinks with Cruz.
In an episode of his podcast,"The Verdict," Cruz said he believed the cans were meant to hurt him, but he appeared to make light of the situation by drinking White Claws while he talked about the incident. Cruz also mocked Arcidiacono and called him a"clown" with a"noodle arm."
