Police arrested a 19-year-old man Saturday inside a Las Vegas theater where presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump was holding a campaign rally after the man attempted to pull a police officer's gun from its holster during the event.
Police said Michael Sandford struck up a conversation with a Las Vegas Metropolitan Police officer under the pretenses that he was seeking to get an autograph. During the conversation, police said Sandford tried to pull the officer's service weapon from its holster. Other officers also assigned to provide security at the event were quickly able to detain Sandford and authorities said there was no further disruption to the event.
Trump is under U.S. Secret Service protection but local law enforcement often supplements them at campaign events....

I wonder if this moron remembers what happened to Mike “The Gentle Giant” Brown when he tried to grab a cop’s gun?

If trump had concealed carry at this convention, a bunch of us could have shot the idiot. One less to worry about.

Nothing more dangerous than attempted gun grab. Hope he got the ol’ “ hickory shampoo” for his trouble.

Serious felony, plus immediate escalation to possibility of deadly force. I am surprised he was able to walk out of there.
