Time magazine photographer Chris Morris told CNN that as he tried to exit the media pen, a Secret Service agent began choking him.
"I'm not pressing charges," Morris said Monday. "I stepped 18 inches out of the pen and he grabbed me by the neck and started choking me and then he slammed me to the ground."
The Secret Service did not immediately respond to a request for comment Monday.
Before the incident, dozens of protesters interrupted Trump's rally, many of them linking arms and bringing the Republican presidential front-runner's stump speech temporarily to a halt.
The protest started after one activist interrupted Trump, to which he responded by asking the protester "Are you from Mexico?"
Some of the demonstrators chanted "Black Lives Matter," to which Trump responded with "All lives matter."

Is Trump perfect? No, but he fights for us and thus I will fight for him.
He is the only guy willing to stand up for that principle.
That is why he is winning.

Liar.
this reminds me of Justified. The knife and the 10ft rule I think it was?
I don’t want a saint. I want a pitbull.
what rally did this demonstration take place at?
When BLM chants “Black Lives Matter,” and boos down “All Lives Matter,” it’s because they really mean “Black Lives Matter MORE.”
At this point they seem to feel that a response of #alllivesmatter is an act of aggression against them. Crybabies.
I saw video clips of the gang of disruptors and Donald’s response. What a great president he will be! I pray for his safety as he takes the heat from every side imaginable, except of course from the side of old fashioned Americans like me who want to Make America Great, Safe, and Prosperous Again!
Trump's got COJONES!
Lines are in. 18 inches across the line is out of the pen. Or are the rules different for reporters?
Picture shows him with his hand on the SS Agents neck. Also reports of him saying FU to the agent.
Now you entered the No Entry Zone!
Absolutely right. Video shows this a$$hat chest-bumps the SS, then tells him to “f*ck off”
This is an example of how various interest groups have capitalized on the failures of this country to divide this nation, have pitted one group against another and lined their pockets with money from duped fellow travelers.
If Black Lives Mattered MORE these same protesters would be standing outside a Planned Parenthood office and demand they shut their doors. PP kills black babies every single day I dont see these idiots protesting that
I was commenting that this guy lied, saying the SS Agent attacked him when it is clear from the video he attacked the Agent (chest-bumping to intimidate, physically assault).
21 feet.
To prevent duplication, please do not alter the published headline, thx.
Sorry, lost my head.
