lorida police have charged Donald Trump's campaign manager Corey Lewandowski with simple assault in connection with an incident earlier in the month involving a reporter.
Police in Jupiter, Florida issued Lewandowski a notice Tuesday to appear before a judge on May 4 for the misdemeanor charge. A surveillance video released by the police appears to show Lewandowski grabbing a reporter for Breitbart News as she tried to ask Trump a question during a March 8 campaign event.
The police report states: "Lewandowski grabbed (Michelle) Fields' left arm with his right hand causing her to turn and step back." Fields showed police her left forearm which "appeared to show a grabbing-type injury," according to the investigating officer.

They can charge you with a misdemeanor for peeing on somebody’s lawn. I’m not impressed.
Going to blow up in their face when they show the video to the jury. Really stupid politically motivated prosecution.
um...
guards push people out of the way all the time when someone popular is trying to make their way through a crowd.
It hit tons of news sources at the same exact time.
her story was that she had been pulled to the ground.
I am totally amazed that Breitbart hires such unstable and liberal reporters.
I am flabbergasted how this woman ever made it onto the payroll.
Pictures of her arm after the ‘assault’, please!
If Fields keep this up she will get charged with false reporting.
Face it - this one will go 10 times today.
As FReepers wake up - the check Breitbart or Drudge - they see this “breaking news” and will rush over here to post it.
And of course they did search first.
Ya- but under different sources!!!! Apparently the new FR method to show ground swell of support....(BTW, both sides are guilty)
“Lewandowski grabbed (Michelle) Fields’ left arm with his right hand causing her to turn and step back.”
That’s it? Some cops in Jupiter, Florida should be fired for wasting taxpayer money.
Yes, this is a minor incident, but attacking Fields character like a Clinton would do when this could have all been settled by a simple apology shows the arrogance of the Trump campaign.
ON DRUDGE! Repost !!!!!!
Wow, cruz supporters support political prosecutions, blm and a man that cheats on his wife and kids. and then forces his wife to publicly lie about it. Ya, you people can keep your conservative values.
Shapiro was a Breitbart reporter and he is completely Trump unhinged. Some of these people are just TDS wackos.
Oh no. This will surely sink Trump. Good grief. Next, please.
Any actual and intentional touching or striking of another person against that person’s will (non-consensual),
or The intentional causing of bodily harm to another person.
Where there are no aggravating factors or enhancements at play (such as use of a weapon, serious bodily injury, or domestic violence) the offense is known as “simple battery” or “misdemeanor battery.”
I hope this makes those who haven’t awakened yet open their eyes.
The truth no longer matters; even when there’s a visual of it. Our media and justice system is out of control.
