The Florida SWAT team member who appeared in photos with Vice President Pence while wearing a patch promoting the "QAnon" conspiracy theory has been disciplined.

The Miami New Times reported on Monday that Matt Patten, a member of the Broward County Sheriff's Office's SWAT team, was reprimanded and demoted from the SWAT team and the county's Office of Homeland Security.

In its written reprimand, Broward County reportedly said that the QAnon conspiracy was "controversial" and that the picture of Patten with Pence had made the office appear "biased" politically.
