Hillary Clinton Attacked By Flying Shoe!
Apparently when the former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton speaks people throw shoes at her?
That is what happened on Thursday in Las Vegas when a unknown woman threw a shoe at Clinton during a convention keynote speech. CelebNMusic247.com has heard that the woman was taken into federal custody.
Here is what is being reported by FOX News:
The incident happened moments after Clinton took the stage before an Institute of Scrap Recycling Industries meeting at the Mandalay Bay resort.
Clinton ducked, and she did not appear to be hit by the object. She then joked about it.
Clinton quipped:
“Is that somebody throwing something at me? Is that part of Cirque de Soleil?”
Clinton was able to shed light on the situation as more than a 1,000 people laughed and applauded as Clinton resumed her speech.
Clinton said:
“My goodness, I didn’t know that solid waste management was so controversial.”
“Thank goodness she didn’t play softball like I did.”
Brian Spellacy, U.S. Secret Service supervisory special agent in Las Vegas, said the woman was being questioned and would face criminal charges. Spellacy declined to identify the woman, and he said it wasn’t immediately clear what the charges would be. He added that a black and orange shoe was recovered from the stage.
Ilene Rosen, the wife of a conventioneer from Denver who was seated in the second row, said she saw an orange object fly toward the stage from a side aisle and papers fluttering in the air.
Moments later Security officials found a middle-aged blonde woman sat calmly on a sofa in the hotel hallway, wearing a blue dress and thong sandals. She said she threw a shoe and dropped some papers, but didn’t identify herself to reporters or explain the action. She was ushered reporters and photographers away. #PoliticsGoneWild
After Hillary’s speech, Jerry Simms first offered what he called a “deepest apology for that crude interruption.”
Clinton answered questions broadly, saying she felt politics today leads people to “do what they think will be rewarded.”
