I don't really know anything about Peruvian politics, but I'm going to go ahead and safely assume that that ain't good.

Dude literally attempted a coup by himself and no one went along with it. He's evidently in custody now

Castillo, who was facing the third impeachment, took the action hours before he was due to face Congress. The deputies ignored the presidents actions and voted by a large majority of 101 to impeach him.

Sometimes you start the day as the president of your country, and end it having been impeached, arrested, and charged with sedition after attempting a one-man coup attempt. These things just kinda happen, you know?

Things went exactly as they should have with him being immediately arrested. Let's all learn a lesson from Peru's playbook.

Nobody can trust somebody who unilaterally tries to desolve Congress.
The denunciation of the move was swift with his own Vice-President Dina Boluarte accusing Castillo of staging a coup dtat.
Within hours of his announcement his own party have dismissed the president along with the support of the opposition and senior government officials.
The action set off a chain of resignations in reaction to the announcement by Castillo, a leftist outsider who came to power barely a year ago.
Castillo, who was facing the third impeachment, took the action hours before he was due to face Congress. The deputies ignored the presidents actions and voted by a large majority of 101 to impeach him.
In his televised announcement Castillo said he intended to call elections as soon as possible, within a period of less than nine months, but that in the meantime the country would be governed by decree.
He said that he was responding to the demands of citizens and that he has taken the decision to establish the rule of law and democracy. He said it was therefore necessary to temporarily dissolve the Congress of the Republic.

Crazy Extreme Leftist who thinks he can take over a country.

Per Wikipedia:
Castillo has been described as a populist, and social conservative. He said that he is not a communist or a Chavista. Peru's attitude towards LGBT rights has generally been hostile and is still heavily influenced by the Catholic Church, and Castillo said to be more in line with his right-wing opponents on social issues, opposing abortion, LGBT rights, same-sex marriage, euthanasia, sex education, and the gender-equality approach in schools; this put him at odds with the progressive left that has supported him, and whose support to govern is needed.
Ah.

There's an incredible amount of nuance that you won't get from any big news outlets but it is nothing like what Trump tried to pull on 1/6. It was still a very stupid thing for him to pull, however.

So, for those keeping score at home, the offices of Prime Minister, First Vice President, and Second Vice President are now all vacant.
