Former President Joe Biden was leaving an event at Trinity College in Dublin on Tuesday night, Nov. 10, when protesters swarmed his motorcade and at least one object was thrown toward him.
Biden, 83, was there with former first lady Jill Biden as their son, Hunter Biden, received the College Historical Society's Gold Medal for Outstanding Contribution to Public Discourse. As the family left, protesters chanted "Genocide Joe," "shame on you," and "blood, blood, blood on your hands." At least one object, reported to be a milk carton, was thrown toward him and was blocked by an umbrella. Biden was escorted into his vehicle, and the motorcade left. No one was injured. The university said the Bidens left without incident.
Irish police, An Garda Síochána, arrested three men. A man in his 50s has been charged in connection with a public order incident and is due to appear in court. The other two, a man in his 30s and a late teen, were released. Police have not released the man's name or specified the exact charge. He is presumed innocent unless proven guilty in court.
The Bidens also met Irish Prime Minister Micheál Martin during the visit. Biden is living with stage 4 prostate cancer. His memoir, "Promise Me, America," is scheduled to be published Nov. 17.
