View original imageOn the 30th (local time), the Associated Press reported that a man began climbing into the area where TV cameras and reporters were located while former President Trump was giving a speech at the rally. As nearby people tried to pull him down, police quickly intervened and subdued the man with a taser gun.
When the man was arrested, the crowd cheered, and former President Trump responded, "Where could be more fun than a Trump rally?"
The motive for the man storming into the press area is still unknown, and it has not been confirmed whether he is a supporter of former President Trump. However, foreign media added that Trump has continued to criticize the media at his rallies, and supporters who listened to his speeches often directed obscene gestures and jeers toward the press area. The incident reportedly occurred amid Trump's criticism that major media outlets were reporting unfavorably about him.
Police later arrested another man at the rally, but it has not been confirmed whether he is related to the earlier intrusion into the press area.
