An individual filmed on video seemingly coming to a Florida woman’s rescue during an altercation while donning an Easter Bunny costume has been revealed to have a violent background, including armed robberies, carjacking and burglarizing.
According to the Tampa Bay Times, Antoine McDonald, 20, despite his apparent good deeds is most recently wanted for a burglary in NJ.
The Easter Bunny crusader was caught on video on Saturday night interceding during an altercation involving a woman and a man outside a Comedy Club in Orlando.
Of note- no arrests were made following Saturday evening’s incident after police responded to the ensuing commotion.

Told McDonald via News6 after the episode which saw him beat down a would be aggressive man, ‘I am the type of person to avoid fights by any means necessary, but in that situation, I would fight any day.’
McDonald told the outlet he didn’t know the woman or man- while insisting he would not tolerate disrespect toward women. But it now appears, McDonald does have his own fuzzy skeletons to contend with.
It wasn’t long after the video went viral that McDonald was exposed of having a sordid past, including being accused of two armed robberies on New Year’s Day in 2017 in his home state of NJ. In 2018 – McDonald and an accomplice were caught on camera burglarizing a car in South Brunswick. Police in New Jersey obtained a warrant for McDonald’s arrest.
McDonald left the state and was later arrested in Pasco County, according to the Times following that episode.
