Donald Trump Swarmed by Secret Service (Attacker's name is Thomas Dimassimo)
People Magazine ^ | 3/12/2016 | ADAM CARLSON

Posted on 03/12/2016 10:56:24 AM PST by Marie

Hours after Donald Trump canceled a Friday night rally in Chicago, citing safety concerns as hundreds of vocal protestors filled the crowd, he appeared before a crowd in Dayton, Ohio, to condemn the "planned attack" in Illinois, Reuters reports – even as a man at the Dayton event allegedly moved toward the stage, sending Secret Service agents to surround Trump.

Video from the rally captured the moment agents suddenly appeared next to Trump when a man "attempted to breach the secure buffer and was removed rapidly and professionally," a campaign spokeswoman told NBC News.

Identified as Thomas Dimassimo, he was charged with disorderly conduct and inducing panic, Dayton Airport Police Chief Mike Etter told NBC News. Dayton Airport Police did not immediately respond to PEOPLE's request for a comment.

Trump himself seemed jarred by the moment, though he bounced back afterward, telling the crowd, according to the Dayton Daily News, "Is anything more fun than a Donald Trump rally?"

"Donald Trump Swarmed by Secret Service (Attacker's name is Thomas Dimassimo)"

It's too bad the headline wasn't "Donald Trump Swarmed by Secret Service (Attacker's name was Thomas Dimassimo)."

He had intent to commit the assault so conspiracy charges should be made as well. They need to throw the book at this guy unless he has a private email server in his closet at home, then he should be given a pass and allowed to run for office.

I did try to post the entire headline, but FR wouldn’t let me. So I had to cut off the end.

If you can think of a better way to get the information out and fix the accuracy of the headline, I suggest that you contact the mods and have them change it to something more appropriate.

Complaining to me does no good. I did my best to conform to the limitations of FR’s posting rules.
