Former US President, Donald Trump has landed in New York ahead Tuesday’s historic arraignment in Manhattan Courthouse.

Trump had left his base in Palm Beach, Florida on Monday to New York to face trial over his indictment by the Grand Jury.

Trump was indicted on criminal charges in New York for his role in organising hush money payments made to an adult film star during his 2016 campaign.

The history-making indictment by the Manhattan grand jury last Thursday marks the first time a president has been charged in a criminal matter.

The former US President faces more than 30 counts related to business fraud. A New York grand jury handed down the sealed indictment late last week. The charges have yet to be made public.

Trump landed in New York shortly after 3:25 p.m. ET.

According to CNN, The Secret Service is scheduled to accompany Trump in the early afternoon Tuesday to the district attorney’s office, which is in the same building as the courthouse, where he is expected to be arraigned.
