The Ohio man who angrily confronted NBC News' Shaquille Brewster on live television was arrested in Dayton on Thursday, authorities said.

Benjamin Eugene Dagley, 54, was picked up at a shopping plaza in the southwest Ohio city, U.S. Marshal Pete Elliott said in a statement.

Dagley is wanted in Gulfport, Mississippi, where he'll be charged with two counts of assault, one count of disturbance of the peace and one count of violation of emergency curfew, officials said.

"This violent fugitive was attempting to flee from his charges in Gulfport but the swift work of our task force members resulted in a timely arrest," Elliott said.

Not the brightest bulb.

1. Why the hell he came to the Dayton Ohio area is beyond me...

Scary....my hometown.... He was arrested at the open style Mall, the Greene...He is in Montgomery County Jail now.. Federal charges etc.

4. maybe passing through, taking back roads?

sounds like he was on parole for stuff in Cleveland...

[FarPoint]

14. Hopefully....no relatives here...

Well, then he lives here now at the Montgomery County Jail....hahahah

2. Obviously a 2 watt bulb.(at least he is not the Ex President of U.S. like a another low watt bulb

Maybe, just maybe...that ex president will be arrested too...But I won't hold my breath...

3. Where does he live, anyway?

Dayton? Cleveland?

& what in the living F was he doing in Gulfport? He violated parole to drive INTO a hurricane?

Its a 12 hour, 800 mile drive to Gulfport MS each way from Dayton. In a full size pickup that gets 20 mpg MAYBE, that's $300 worth of gas.

19. I think this guy will be a sad story where personal frustration

boils over into a manic, drug-fueled meltdown.

5. 6 Hours Community Service

That's about the most he'll get, using the sentences for Insurrection that are being handed down as a guide.

7. NO..attempting to flee from his charges

I Gotcha by Joe Tex

10. the last administration!

the last 5 yrs haven't seen a whole group of bright people in the last adm. ! got to give them credit though it has most definitely helped fill up jail cell's & the doj something to do !

12. Local Boy Makes Bad......

He lives near here. Dayton area.

He had an electroplating business near here, and broke into a competitor to drill holes in their chemical tanks. One was something - cyanide. The others weren't much nicer. Security guard caught him.

Convicted, he had to do $15,000 in restitution, a $5000 fine, and probation. Great to be White, ain't it.

[BidenRocks]

13. Where did the cyanide go?

EPA, DNR and a whole alphabet soup of agencies should have been all over this!

15K is only a down payment.

[Chainfire]

17. The article that I read said that when mixed some of the chemicals he released would produce

cyanide gas similar to that used in WWI. How about being charged with terrorism and attempted murder?

[brush]

21. There was also hydrocloric acid and sulfuric acid released...

both strong and highly toxic, IIRC from high school chemistry classes.

[Strelnikov_]

20. Well, he did have to attend anger management as part of the sentence

Seems it did not take.

[Chainfire]

15. I bet he was surprised when the Federal Marshals cuffed him.

"You just can't get away with **** anymore."

[bluestarone]

16. Just gotta say i wish to hell i could

Observe the arrests of all these assholes everyday!! Even the arrests of the Jan 6th. terrorists I just want to WITNESS all their arrests!

[hatrack]

18. "Confronting"? I believe the word is "assaulting", NBC, if you're listening . . .
