A reporter covering Governor Mike DeWine‘s news conference was taken down to the ground by law enforcement and arrested Wednesday for allegedly disrupting a news conference.
Governor DeWine was at an East Palestine, Ohio gym, discussing a train derailment in the city when reporter Evan Lambert was doing a live shot for NewsNation. It appears police told Lambert he was interrupting the Governor, but Lambert was in the middle of his report and continued on.
Just after Lambert finished, local police took Lambert down to the ground and cuffed him, as onlookers questioned cops as to why.
