Donald Trump was formally arrested Thursday on racketeering and conspiracy charges in Georgia, as the former US president battles his fourth criminal indictment while seeking reelection to the White House.
The 77-year-old billionaire was booked at Atlanta's Fulton County Jail, which was ringed by a tight security perimeter as hordes of journalists and dozens of the Republican's supporters flocked to the facility.
Trump was expected to have his mug shot taken before being released on $200,000 bond.
