"A man made famous by wearing a bunny suit and fighting a man in downtown Orlando has been arrested in connection with a hit-and-run in Altamonte Springs.
Antoine McDonald made national headlines for allegedly defending a woman in a viral video.
An arrest report shows McDonald drove a motorcycle up a yard and destroyed a carport to a home. The homeowner, Arthur Theurer, said McDonald ditched his bike and left a shoe behind.
"He came flying up, evidentially, and took out three four-by-fours," Theurer said.
Theurer said he was woken up early last Thursday morning by police banging on his bedroom window. "I came to the door, and I couldn't open the door all the way because the roof," Theurer said.
His carport collapsed on top of his truck, causing him thousands of dollars' worth of damage.
Court documents said McDonald did not stop at a stop sign and smashed into Theurer's carport on Dogwood Street.
A neighbor reportedly spotted the motorcycle driver limping away.
Investigators went to McDonald's house, which is a few blocks away, and spotted a car leaving the driveway. An arrest report says McDonald was lying in the back seat of the car in an Easter bunny costume and appeared to be alive. Florida Highway Patrol troopers said McDonald scraped his leg and cut his ribs during the motorcycle crash.
A report said McDonald told investigators: "I wasn't in any crash. I'm the Orlando Easter bunny, Google it."
McDonald is now in the Seminole County Jail, and without insurance, Theurer said he has to pay for the carport damages himself."
