A man at the center of a viral confrontation outside Karmelo Anthony's murder trial was arrested outside the courthouse where Anthony was found guilty of murder earlier this week, one of at least two arrests that were made as tensions flared during the racially-charged case.
Both individuals were taken into custody shortly after Anthony’s sentence was announced on Tuesday, the Collin County Sheriff’s Office confirmed to Fox News Digital.
The individual involved in the viral clash, identified as Jerome Winston Parker, was arrested on an outstanding warrant for alleged unlawful carrying of a weapon, according to the Collin County Sheriff’s Office.

Police said the charge stems from an alleged incident that took place in the parking lot of the courthouse during "activities related to trial proceedings" three days earlier on June 6.
Parker was subsequently arrested Tuesday and remains in custody on a $1,000 bond.
On Tuesday, he was seen in a face-to-face confrontation with an Austin Metcalf supporter, arguing in support of Anthony in a heated clash outside the courthouse.

Daniels was subsequently taken into custody and charged with public intoxication, according to jail records obtained by Fox News Digital.

GOT A TIP?
Social media posts made to Daniels’ X account show him condemning Anthony’s actions, while pointing to race as playing a key factor in the controversial murder trial.

"Karmelo Anthony will be convicted and sentenced to life in prison.
As he should.
He murdered that boy because he was raised to hate white people and to view himself as a victim in every situation.
It’s a culture thing."
