A Florida gentleman who became internet famous for fighting while wearing Easter bunny costume has now been arrested after a hit-and-run incident. Who could have possibly seen that coming?

As our Rob Beschizza wrote when the “Easter bunny fighting man” footage went viral around last Easter:

Police were forced to restrain the Easter Bunny this weekend after he landed a series of blows on a man during a street brawl in Orlando, Fla.

As Rob wrote, Antoine McDonald became instantly internet famous when the video of him fighting a guy on the streets of Orlando last year. went viral

Earlier this month, McDonald was riding his motorcycle, ran a stop sign, and crashed into someone else's garage before zooming away, according to the Florida Highway Patrol.

Excerpt from today's story in the Associated Press:

The carport collapsed on top of the vehicle. Deputies went to McDonald’s address and spotted a gray car driving away and found McDonald laying in the backseat of the car. When a deputy went to arrest him, he denied it.

“I wasn’t in any crash. I’m the Orlando Easter bunny, Google it,” he said, according to an arrest report.
