Arlington National Cemetery is under the jurisdiction of the U.S. Army. Arlington officials require permits for media and other organizations to photograph or record inside the cemetery.
While individual visitors are allowed to take pictures, federal law bans videos or photographs for "partisan, political or fundraising purposes."
NPR was the first to report that Trump campaign staffers were filming in Section 60. A cemetery official attempted to prevent Trump staffers from entering the section, but "campaign staff verbally abused and pushed the official aside, according to the source," NPR wrote, citing an unnamed source with knowledge of the incident.
A senior Defense Department official familiar with the incident at Arlington National Cemetery told USA TODAY it was a minor altercation. No charges have been filed.
