Colombian Football Federation president Ramon Jesurun was arrested in Miami during an incident at Sunday's Copa America final, according to a police report issued on Monday. A Miami-Dade County police file indicated Jesurun was arrested on charges of "assault on officer/employee" on Sunday night at Hard Rock Stadium. There was chaos as spectators stormed the gates at the home of the NFL Miami Dolphins, with people pushed to the ground and people trying to sneak into the stadium through huge air conditioning ducts and the start delayed by 80 minutes. Ni Ramón Jesurun, presidente de la Fedefútbol, se salvó del desastre logístico y de organización de la Copa América.

Argentina defeated Colombia 1-0 in the Copa America final with a goal in extra time by Lautaro Martinez.
Jesurun, 71, was not allowed to enter the field with his son and other family members after the contest for the awards ceremony, the Colombian newspaper El Tiempo reported.
Jesurun's son confronted a security guard who denied them access.
