Fairhope police reportedly apprehended one person at the "No Kings" protest on Saturday on Greeno Road near Fairhope Avenue. The person was wearing what appeared to be a penis costume and was holding a sign that read, "No Dick Tator."
Fairhope Faith Collective posted a photo of the suspect on social media, claiming that there were children in the area.
Mayor Sherry Sullivan confirmed the person was first asked to leave the parade and was ultimately arrested.
"This type of behavior or display is not acceptable and will not be tolerated in Fairhope," Sullivan told 1819 News. "Protests should remain peaceful and free of profanity and obscene displays."
Sullivan did not provide the name of the protester but said police would release more information on Monday.
