Man Arrested For Throwing Tomato At Sarah Palin

Bloomington Police say a man threw a tomato at former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin during her Monday appearance at the Mall of America, but didn't hit her.

Officers say two of their own were hit by tomato fragments instead, after the tomato hit the stage about 10 feet from Palin. People on the second level balcony, where the tomato was thrown from, helped police apprehend the man accused of throwing it.

Police identified him as Jeremiah Wobbe from St. Paul. They said he was arrested and could face assault and disorderly conduct charges. Officers added that they found two more tomatoes he'd been carrying.

Palin was at the mall signing copies of her book, "Going Rogue," for four hours Monday. She did not address the crowd, but did speak individually to owners of the books she signed.

You know he probably had a bit of hurt on him from the people helping the police apprehend him.

He throws like his dear leader. I really don’t get the mentality of someone to take time out of their day to go the mall and throw tomatoes at someone. Kathy Griffin(Who I cant stand) had a book signing at borders at The Grove, did I go there and throw something at her, no, because I don’t give a rats behind about her. I just don’t get these leftists, so filled with hate it takes total control of their meaningless lives

She needs professional bodyguards ASAP. Does anyone know if she’s contracted for security, and if so, what kind?

Palin has too much class for something like this. She will persuade prosecutors to drop the charges.
