Two Doctors Arrested In Florida For Allegedly Stealing Neighbor's Pro-Trump Flag

Two doctors in Florida were arrested Tuesday after allegedly sneaking onto their neighbor’s property and stealing a Trump 2020 campaign flag.

Geoffrey Michael Fraiche, 41, and Laura Ann Webb-Fraiche, 38, were arrested by the Santa Rosa County Sheriff’s Office for the alleged theft that took place in Gulf Breeze, Florida. The two were charged with criminal mischief, trespassing, larceny and contributing to the delinquency of a minor.

They were booked Tuesday at Santa Rosa County Jail and were released the same day.

Both Geoffrey Fraiche and Laura Webb-Fraiche work as gynecologists at two different hospitals in the area. Geoffrey Fraiche’s arrest report said he worked at Sacred Heart Hospital and Laura Webb-Fraiche’s report said she worked at West Florida Hospital.

Police said the original incident reportedly occurred on April 7 while the couple was driving through their neighborhood with their two kids on a golf cart. The neighbor’s Ring camera caught the couple stopping the cart by the house and set up a ladder on the flag pole in the neighbor’s yard. Geoffrey Fraiche was then reportedly seen on the camera climbing up the ladder and taking down the flag before the family left.

After they were arrested, the neighbor told Pensacola ABC-affiliate WKRG that the flag cost around $200 and the couple caused $500 in damage to his flag pole. He said he intended to press charges.

Republican Rep. Matt Gaetz took to Twitter, saying the couple’s actions were “despicable.” He also included a video of the pair taking the flag from their neighbor.
