Trump rushed off stage at Nevada rally

Donald Trump was taken off the stage by security personnel during a Saturday night rally in Reno Nev when a man appeared to rush the stage. The Republican presidential nominee noticed a protestor in the crowd and told event security to remove him. But as Trump looked out over the crowd to spot the protestor two men in suits ran to the stage grabbed him by the shoulders and rushed him behind the curtain. A group of security officials jumped over the barricade protecting the stage and looking into the crowd, backing up shocked attendees who tried to take video of the protestor. Images emerged on social media of armed guards encircling someone on the ground. Security led a bald man out of the convention hall as the crowd cheered and also booed the protestor Moments later a rally speaker took to the stage to tell the unsettled crowd that nobody is going to stop this movement. Trump returned to the stage moments later to continue his speech. The energetic crowd cheered his return. Trump who didn t appear unsettled briefly addressed the incident before jumping back into his speech. Nobody said it was going to be easy for us but we will never be stopped Never ever be stopped Trump said I want to thank the Secret Service. These guys are fantastic they dont get enough credit he said. A few minutes later, the businessman paused to thank his supporters for helping to protect him as the man rushed the stage I want to thank all these people he said pointing to the area where the man was stopped. I saw what you were doig that s a tough group of people right there. I saw that that was pretty amazing. Nobody messes with our people he said. After the rally MSNBC's Jacob Rascon tweeted a picture of what appeared to be heavily armed police officers guarding a bathroom where the man had presumably been taken by officers.
