Police Chief Jorge Colina, who has since retired, said at the time that the officer s actions were unacceptable and a violation of departmental policy. Miami-Dade State Attorney Katherine Fernandez Rundle directed her staff to look into the matter over concerns that the officer s actions constituted voter intimidation. Even Miami Mayor Francis Suarez weighed in, tweeting that the cop, later identified as Daniel Ubeda, was under investigation and that disciplinary measures will be taken.
